|
A Harvard-trained legal scholar was sworn in Aug. 8 as the new head of the Tibetan government-in-exile, taking over from the Dalai Lama as the official leader of his people's fight for freedom. Lobsang Sangay immediately confronted a host of challenges. Sangay is the first secular figure to ever lead the deeply religious Tibetan community. He was born in eastern India and has never visited Tibet. China has rejected his legitimacy and refuses to negotiate with him. (AP)
