Africa-Press – Mozambique. <\/strong><\/span>Maria Gustava, Mozambique\u2019s ambassador to China, visited Tibet from May 16 to 22, alongside more than 80 diplomatic envoys, experts in various fields, media and business representatives, and international students. He is not the only one who has been impressed by Tibet\u2019s social and economic development in recent years.<\/p>\n

The delegation visited schools and communities in Nyingchi and the regional capital Lhasa and spoke with locals from various walks of life. They also visited major attractions including the Potala Palace, a UNESCO World Heritage site.<\/p>\n

Ambassador Gustava said she was amazed by how Tibet has prospered. \u201cTibet is becoming modern. It is closely connected with modern life, but still retains its own identity, its own tradition and its ecology to some extent, which is the combination of modern life and culture.\u201d<\/p>\n

She said that the communities and villages are connected with hardened roads, which is remarkable. \u201cThe roads were built to reach people out there in the mountains, to reach people in very remote areas.\u201d<\/p>\n

Statistics show that Tibet made further progress in the development of its transportation infrastructure in 2022, bringing the total length of roads open to traffic to 121,400 kilometres. Last year, the plateau region invested almost 16.39 billion yuan (about 2.33 billion U.S. dollars) in fixed assets for road transportation.<\/p>\n

Maria Gustava said it is even more remarkable that people still have access to the internet and 5G in remote areas. \u201cNo matter where you are, even in its remote rural areas, you are still connected with the rest of the world.\u201d<\/p>\n

Tibet had more than 9,500 5G base stations by the end of March, with the number of 5G users in the region nearing 1.03 million. In the meantime, the 5G network had covered the main urban areas of its 74 county-level areas.<\/p>\n

After a visit to the No. 2 Primary School in Nyingchi, Maria Gustava said she was glad to see the high standard of education there. It is a public school that provides free schooling. \u201cYou never go wrong with education \u2014 it is planting a seed that is going to bring fruits in the future,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Her view was echoed by Muhammad Asghar, an experienced journalist from Pakistan, who described what is taking place in Tibet as a \u201ctotally different story.\u201d<\/p>\n

Asghar noted that before his visit, he had thought he was going to a very underdeveloped place, where the infrastructure was perhaps not at all comparable to that in the southern or eastern parts of China.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe education standard here is actually very high,\u201d Asghar said. He was impressed by the neat and clean school facilities, as well as the students\u2019 ability to speak both Tibetan and Mandarin. \u201cThey also study English and have art and computer classes.\u201d<\/p>\n

The delegation also watched a Tibetan opera performance in Norbulingka, a UNESCO World Heritage site in Lhasa.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs we watched the Tibetan opera, we could not help but form a circle to dance with the performers, and then we took a group photo while saying \u2018Tashi Delek\u2019 (meaning \u2018good luck\u2019 in Tibetan) together,\u201d said Wang Jianbin, a professor at the Beijing Foreign Studies University.<\/p>\n

He said that during the trip, they witnessed the ways that Tibetan costumes, Tibetan opera and other forms of cultural heritage are being passed down through generations.<\/p>\n

Thanks to continuous investment and huge support from the whole country, Tibet has undergone rapid development over recent decades. By the end of 2019, the autonomous region had eradicated absolute poverty. Tibet\u2019s GDP increased from 71 billion yuan in 2012 to 208 billion yuan in 2021.<\/p>\n

The average life expectancy in Tibet increased from just 35.5 years in 1951 to 72.19 years in 2021. Tibet is the first provincial-level region in China to provide 15 years of public-funded education, from kindergarten to senior high school.<\/p>\n
