00:00First of all, what's your name?

00:01I'm Karma Chewing, Secretary, Department of Information and International Relations, CTA.

00:06There has been an earthquake in Tibet and China.

00:10What will you say?

00:13The information that we got this morning, an earthquake of 7.1 magnitude on Richter

00:20scale took place in Tibet, in South Tibet, a place called Tengri.

00:27So it is reported that some more than 50-something people died due to the earthquake and some

00:3450-something, I think, are injured.

00:38But the numbers are still not confirmed yet.

00:41There are reports where they say as many as 95-something people are said to be dead.

00:48So I think the earthquake is of a very high magnitude.

00:53Sir, what kind of situation is there right now?

00:56We do not have any information.

01:00It happened just this morning.

01:02And we are getting reports from various sources, like from media, Tibetan media sources and

01:08other sources, but the number of people dead and injured are varying between 50-something

01:14to 90-plus.

01:17So basically the Tibetan region, because Tengri is to the south of Tibet, close to the Himalayas,

01:24so the Himalayan region is a very sensitive, earthquake-prone area.

01:29So these kinds of things happen.

01:31So it's really unfortunate and our prayer goes to our Tibetan brothers and sisters who

01:37passed away and who suffered injury due to the earthquake and their family members.
