Tomorrow will be 0m 54s longer.There are no recent blogs in this area.Why not create your own?Want to contribute your weather data?There are no personal weather stations in this area.While no evidence of poverty was observed in villages, the agricultural produce market in the county town is a desultory place, manned by a few Chinese sellers whose fruit and vegetable have been trucked in from Chengdu.As the county town is swelled by the Chinese immigrants, the vegetable supply will have to expand to keep pace, by import or local market gardening schemes.The latter have been tried successfully in Lhasa in recent years.Nomads have recently been settled in the county,
although further information is required before determining where any may still
be living a traditional nomadic lifestyle.Good pastures exist naturally in Dawu and should support herders at a comfortable economic level, but land degradation from sever logging is now a problem.Forests are Dawu's riches economic resource, and have been exploited by the
Chinese since the earliest days of occupation.Yunnan pine, in the Yalong River catchment.In Garthar township lumber yard runs half the length of the town from the northern end, and the rest of the town seems to subsist on the proceeds of the lumber traffic, with most of the main street buildings constructed of wooden shops servicing passing lumber trucks.Prefectural and county levels both maintain facilities in the town.County Forest Products Development Company, reflecting the market trend of the industry and likelihood of intensified exploitation.While logs from Tibetan forest in Kham roll through the town loaded on trucks
heading for Chengdu, thousands more logs flow down the Xianshui River.Signs painted on telegraph poles along the highway as it hugs the river warn against salvage, a punishable offence.The great mass of logs supply the Chinese market, however.Dawu's other natural resource now keenly exploited by State and private Chinese
miners is gold.Private mining, mostly by Chinese miners, is more visible form of exploitation, however.Some men near the roadside appear to be prisoners, although they were collecting gravel for roadwork rather than sieving for gold.Tibetans often work over the Chinese mines after the Chinese move on.The effect on the river beds is devastating.For several kilometers past Garthar township towards Dartsedo the river's bed and banks have been intensively mined, leaving behind a ravaged channel of deep pits and mounds of rock and gravel.In the case of such mining activity, the Tibetans rightly complain that the Chinese extract and remove their resources, leaving behind a damaged environment but no real benefits to local Tibetans.Dawu Sea Feeling Hotel

in her tiny Catholic church.She sat down on one of the flat, polished
boards that made up the church's seating.The nun was 73 years old, but still very energetic.The town's enormous Gelugpa monastery
Nyimtso Gonpa, which had roughly 2000 monks at that time, did not easily brook
trespassers into their terrain.Many other Bonpo and Nyingmapa monasteries were intimidated
into subjugation.Tibetans east of the Yangtze.The monks rose up in rebellion, and with them the other Tibetans of
Dawu.They killed many Chinese, and drove the rest away.At this time, only one French missionary was resident in Dawu.The magistrate and his wife were also captured,
but not harmed.The New Nationalist government reacted quickly to this insurrection, sending
troops to Dawu to restore order.All four captives were released.The
monks were kicked out of Nyimtso, but later mediation restored the monastery to
them.This church was where
Melinda and I had first gone, following a trail that eventually led us to the
nun and her fellow congregants.The last foreign missionary left Dawu in 1949 when the Communists took
control of China.After Liberation,
in accordance with the people's wishes, the French missionary Tan Yuanming was
sent back to his homeland, thus ending 43 years of French imperialist
aggression.But after
the fall of Mao, the Catholics of Dawu began to pull themselves together.The congregation numbers about 20, and ranges in age from 51 to 80.Tibetans and Chinese are present in roughly equal numbers, and they worship
together at a bilingual mass.The only priest in
the area lives in Kangding and visits rarely (his last visit was in August of
1999).Thus, unless immigration brings a fresh influx
of young members, the days of this Catholic community are numbered.Its history was so
colorful, and the people so touchingly eager to make contact.Dawu, of whatever faith, will stop by and visit this humble but
indomitable little church.
