The South African government has refused the Dalai Lama an entry visa because it may affect its trade relationship with China.
Generations of South Africans fought long and hard for cultural respect, political equality and democracy -- struggling hand in hand with friends around the world for freedom. Now it's our time. Sign the petition below reminding President Motlanthe that the New South Africa is a country built on solidarity and calling on him to grant the Dalai Lama a visa for entry.
Please sign the petition now!
