Description

Many happy returns to the Dalai Lama who has just turned 90, but the reality that many are facing is that there may soon be a dispute over succession. The Dalai Lama’s supporters will choose their own reincarnated leader, but the Chinese government has long made it clear that the successor will come from China.



Guest: Assoc. Professor Ruth Gamble (Deputy Director, La Trobe Asia)



Recorded on 8th July, 2025.
