From a tiny group of ten students in 1993, TSAM has now developed into a full-fledged Students' Association with over 200 members. Following the glorious legacy of our founders, TSAM has always been one of the most active Tibetan Students' Association and we have our marks in Tibetan society at various level. TSAM is proud that many of our ex-members are serving our society and the Government by different means. To this day, TSAM still remains as an incubation camp from where many contributing members for our society are successfully dispatched every year.

its nice to go through Tsam aims and objective.But shouldnt discriminate non tsam members.Which Tsam is Known for this culture.
ReplyDeleteits very proper to say Tsam as a Family during Tenzin Tsuendue Times,coz that time they are very few tibetan students,who r alwayz together,
ReplyDeleteNow Tsam member is almost 200,so it should stop treating like a family,it should be like association or organizatoion,rather than "FAMILY"
The problem is that they treat like a family,not professional in wat they r suppose to do,it sounds so crazy,those who dont come to meeting.levying fine n penalty,it sounds so
kiddish.most of the students are from poor background.so wat in earth Tsam is doing this injustice by fining those students who didnt attend the meetings.Tsam need to be Change.
well both of the above comments i want to say something ....there is no discrimination between tsam and non-tsam. i think you should know that beginning of the year tsam president announced to register to be a tsam member and some one like you guys never bother , instead throwing remarks . and without registering your name in one association or member how could you be a part of them ,. ,,,,,,its a logic and there is nothing to think deep ...if you are not part of tsam you are not eligible to participate in any events organized by tsam and it's dame to all the organization or association.....
ReplyDeleteand about the fine ,,,,,you should ask your self how many times you come to meeting or how many times you have participate in discussing some important issues .......we know the reality but we fail to except...when the president call for a meeting we hardly find few peoples and they are the people who usually comes and meeting should be held in order to discuss the projects or other things...but only few people show up ....once you being a part of this association you should agree with terms and conditions of it and you should present in its meeting ...suppose say if tsam is giving money who come to meeting then i think the number will be increased in multiple manner .....so think about it buddy before you say something ...don't pull your association down ......
Tsam, ur blog is awesome. Keep up the good work and its sure that eventually your blog will gain its readership, and its readership scope in the offing is a plausible surprise!
ReplyDeleteyou say do not buy Chinese goods, what about Tibetans who sell Chinese goods , so there is a illusionary paradox on livelihood options, so take away Chinese goods stuff, become more open to everything.
ReplyDeletePlease Consider this!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeletepls dont use my house terrace for tsam meeting n dance purpose,its been like a tradition for tsam to use my terrace without asking me.i am being a center of target from my house owner and neighbours.becoz last time tsam had a dance practice on my house terrace,what they did is they threw away my neighbour cloths from the rope,n the cloth clips are threw outside,n they even took out the cloth hanging rope,and it also disturbs me alot for exam preparation..pls dont use this terrace...hope president will understand.
thank you alot
i think this is not necessary to post here ...u better contact president personally..
ReplyDeleteTo the one who posted on March 10,2011..
ReplyDeletewith due respect to your self and with no intention of offending you,i just want to say that this site being an open blog,it would be good if u will restrain yourself from vulgar and offensive words.Putting one's views,
suggestions,appreciations and criticism is good but it should be within the language of certain formalities and respect for others too.So,as a reader plus as fellow tibetan,that too a Tsam member,I request everyone to restrain themself from the using abusive and vulgar words as to not to offend and stain the image of all the other tibetans, for if an outsider reads the comments and find such words,the first impression that he/she will form from such reading would be of negative.so please,consider such restrain as a small duty for being a tibetan.don show ur innate character(though u may hide behind the annonymous username)and drag our image(as a tibetan)too.
-dadon
i contacted presidnt personally,no use of talking to him......
