A Tibetan School: Khampa People


2003/Color/Betacam SP/60min
Location: Deqin County, Yunnan
Spokesperson: Ah Niu (Tibetan)
Organization: Deqin County Puli Tibetan Language School
Producer: Deqin TV/Shanghai Oriental TV

In June 1997, Ah Niu, a Tibetan resident of Wulongding Village (Deqin County), used his own savings and loans to found a Tibetan language school which offers free Tibetan classes to local children. The school has accepted 65 students, forming six classes ranging from grades 1 through 5. Other classes include Tibetan traditional medicine, Chinese language, English, Tibetan painting and dance. Despite the support of international organizations, the school still faces a number of problems. Nevertheless, Ah Niu refuses to give up and continues to contribute to the preservation of Khampa culture.
