China is doing something similar with Putonghua as the national language. In my opinion, this does not equate to suppressing local cultures but rather serves as a practical and unifying approach for a large, diverse nation.

Some people have complained that Xizang's people are being forced to learn Putonghua. I don't think this is the case. It seems natural for young people to want to learn a widely spoken language that can benefit them in their future.

I visited high schools in Lhasa. They seem to be very nice high schools and impressive. In fact, I wish my own high school had been that nice.

These investments have driven economic growth while giving Xizang the potential to blend traditional culture with modern business practices.

Moreover, high-speed internet and communication networks have brought new business opportunities to Xizang's remote villages, playing a key role in boosting the region's economic development.

However, much of this investment is also aimed at improving the quality of life for the people. While it may take a long time to yield financial returns, the immediate benefits to daily life are evident.

I hope this progress continues, as it creates opportunities for businessmen and entrepreneurs to establish and grow their ventures. I observed some of these developments firsthand, which wouldn't have been possible without modern communication and transportation infrastructure.

For example, I observed the improvement in infrastructure such as roads, railways and sewage systems. I saw excellent roads and impressive high-speed railways built in very challenging terrain - a testament to the massive investment being made.
