A BENDIGO group is disappointed the Tibetan flag will not be allowed to fly from the town hall this week to mark the anniversary of Tibet's national uprising against Chinese occupation.
Bendigo councillors felt it would be inappropriate to fly the flag, as it is not recognised by the federal government or the United Nations.

In this vast steppe between the Volga and the Don, one does not seem to expect Tibetan Buddhist temples in which incense are burnt, and monks recite prayer in Tibetan scripts.
Even the national flag of Kalmykia features a lotus - the very symbol of Buddhism, and colour yellow that signifies the Geluk sect.
The trip to Kalmykia will be more challenging than any journeys taken previously for the following reasons: the nation is not a tourist spot and is not covered by any travel guide book in the world, as oppose to those seemingly remote destinations such as Timbuktu.
