Voices from Africa: Hope Beijing to host a great Olympics so as to humiliate our common enemy.

Moroccan listener Idris Buwadina said in an email to CRI that China is a country with a long history. The Olympics means much to China with the globe attention focusing on Beijing. We expect all goes well with the Beijing Olympics. Olympic Games is a sport event for the entire world, and any attempt to sabotage the Games is against the wishes of the world and those who love China. I am glad to see that Lhasa has reverted to calm from the riot by the efforts of local and central governments."

Idris added Morocco is a religious country and their belief is sacred. He said the harmony of a society, stability of a country and the peace of the world need the concerted efforts of all of us.

Algerian listener Ben Amir Aid said in a letter that it is sorrowful to see the violence in Tibet. It is resulted from instigation by splittists overseas. "They attempted to defame China through this incident especially with the approach of Beijing Olympics Games. China and actually any other countries have the rights to adopt the measures that they believe are appropriate to deal with any riots and violence which threaten their national security. It is China's interior affairs and other countries have no rights to interfere.

Nigerian listener Sallasu wrote an email to the Hausa Service. "Recently I browse your newly-launched columns everyday. I knew the truth from your reports. I want to say the Tibet Issue is China's interior affair, and I support the Chinese government's stance and measures it adopted to deal with the incidence. I also oppose some western countries and media in western countries to make use of the Tibet Issue to intervene in China's interior affairs, and link Tibet Issue with Beijing Olympic Games.

Tanzanian listener Fadhili Kipene wrote to the Swahili Service of CRI. "I knew that recently a handful of people conducted sabotage activities in Tibet which threaten the locals' the property and lives. These evil activities were doomed to fail. I believed the riot was hatched by exiled Dalai clique, and meanwhile supported and connived by a minority in some western countries. In January 2007, I read an article carried by a magazine affiliated to Voice of America, which devoted a long page to discuss the Tibet Issue. The article said they supported the anti-government forces to resist the governance by Chinese central government, and supported them to spit Tibet from Chinese territory to establish an illegal regime. I believe a few people in western countries connive at the limited number of people in Tibet to conduct the destructive activities in the run up to the Beijing Olympic Games in a bid to denigrate the great economic achievement in China since the implement of reform and opening-up policy."

Tanzanian listener Mchana J Mchana in an email conveyed his regards to the people who lost their relatives or properties during the riot in Lhasa. "I feel sad at the news because it was a loss of human being. The western media spared no effort in instigating the incident, which demonstrated they were directly involved in the incident. "I believe Dalai Lama machinated the Lhasa incident, and some people in Tibet took money from the clique and become the tool of them to execute violence since Dalai clique exiled from China. Money lured them to do anything even betraying their parents. Chinese leaders and people must consolidate together to put the situation in Tibet under control because there indeed are a handful of people who do not want China to hold Olympic Games with stable harmonious atmosphere. I hope Chinese people do not feel dejected and continue to actively make preparation for the Olympic Games and thus put our common enemy to shame.
