THE Beijing Olympic flame will spend just one day in Tibet next month rather than the three days originally scheduled.

#5 As Tibet is a province of China and in fact Tibetans are taking part in the Olympics it is only natural that the people of Tibet would like this once in a life-time chance to see the Olympic flag.
