From the director:
Folks, I wish you all very happy singing and hope that it goes well. It may not be big and organised, but it surely will bring joy to all, especially to those who are in Tibet — letting them know that the world does care about Tibet.

I may not be there physically, but I will be there in spirit, and all my good wishes will be there. I tried to get to NYC but the US embassy denied me a visa. The Belgian visa is still being processed. (Exile Tibetans in India travel with Identity Certificate in place of a passport, issued by the Indian government.)

Finally I thank Tawo Lobsang Palden for the song and Tawo Riga for singing the song. My thanks to all the participants in Brussels and NYC for making the event a success, and to all who helped me in so many different ways. My mother Tsering Dolkar and younger brother Namgyal Wangchuk travelled from Vermont to NYC for the event.

— Lobsang Wangyal
