Tenzin Delek Rinpoche, a highly respected Buddhist monk from Eastern Tibet, was 
sentenced to death on December 2nd, 2002 on unproven bombing charges.  Human 
rights organizations around the world believe Tenzin Delek Rinpoche was 
framed because he is viewed by the Chinese (PRC) government as a threat to 
their control over Eastern Tibet.  Tenzin Delek could be executed anytime 
after December 2nd, 2004.  By participating in the actions below, you can 
help save Tenzin Delek's life.
 
1. A rally and candlelight vigil on Thurs 2 Dec 2004, from 3 pm-dark at the 
Chinese Consulate (Granville and 16th - South East side ) 

2. A silent rally and street theatre on Fri 10 Dec 2004 
(International Human Rights Day) from 10am-noon, also at the Chinese Consulate. Please 
bring a message of support for Tenzin Delek to be delivered to the Chinese Consulate
