Sita, vice chairman of China Overseas Friendship Association said when introduced a real Tibet in Australia that there was a long existing prejudice against Tibet in western countries and only deep views exchange can change their attitude and misunderstanding.

The group, led by Sita, also vice minister of the United Front Work Department of the CPC, was on December 3 invited by the Australian Council for the Promotion of the Peaceful Reunification of China (ACPPRC) to introduce the current situation of Tibet, Chinese government's policies and stand on Tibet, to Australian public and oversea Chinese.

Sita said China has been hoping to introduce a true Tibet to the world. "Many people's prejudices against Tibet are formed for a long time and China is very much active in introducing a real Tibet to people all around the world. To better construct and develop Tibet in a bid to enable people to understand it and to introduce a real Tibet in a good way are the only two solutions for the prejudice," said Sita.

Sita also patiently explained topics about Tibet that causes wide attentions in Australia in the reception.

Jeff Hunter, former chairman with the New South Wales Asia Friendship Group of Australia, who has been to Tibet, showed his agreement to Sita's introduction. He said:"I'm very much impressed by the education and medical treatment in Tibet when I visit Tibet and I also talked with local Tibetan people to get further understanding. From what I saw and heard I know many traditional Tibetan cultures are carried forward while keep developing."

Among the delegation of Tibetologists, some are local Tibetan people and they also introduced Tibet with their own experiences.

He Shenhui, former vice head of Upper House of State of New South Wales of Australia held that introduction of Tibet should enable people to understand it from the root and to talk about Tibet in Australia is very important for the local people who are hoping to better understand the region. She said:"Only by visiting Tibet, talking with people from Tibet face to face or trying to find out the answer personally can people change their misunderstanding and prejudice and I think persistent talk and mutual visiting are quite necessary."
