La nouvelle loi Immigration change pas mal de choses, notamment sur un aspect dont on a peu entendu parler : les tests de langue.
Pourtant, ceux-ci ne sont pas demandés à tous et, paradoxalement, le sont surtout à ceux qui en auraient le moins besoin.
On en parle ici.

The lotuses in this 9th or 10th-century Tibetan manuscript from Dunhuang mark the end of a section and represent a relatively early example of Tibetan illuminated manuscripts. Most lotuses are in black ink, but at least one is in color.

billboards reminding Tibetans of Party loyalty? Genuine happiness & freedom typically don’t require this level of choreography, unless your hiding something?
