On 17th May 2007 a candel lit vigil was held for the release of The Panchen Lama in Mc Leod Ganj, Dharamsala, the home of the Dali Lama and Tibetan community in exile.

During the vigil, there was no negativity or resentment against the PRC. Only chants for world peace and the release of the Panchen Lama. When I look at other conflicts in the world, the first thing see or hear is blame, resentment and hatred. Knowing what Tibetans have gone through and experiencing such a harmonious event brought tears to my eyes.
"The candle light processions was organised to mark the 12th year of forceful captivity of the 11th Panchen Lama, Gendhun Choekyi Nyima, by the Communist Chinese authorities.
On 17 May 1995, three days after Gendhun Choekyi Nyima was recognised by the Dalai Lama as the reincarnation of the 10th Panchen Lama, he along with his family went missing in Tibet.
On 28 May 1996, the Chinese Government finally admitted that they are actually holding Gedhun Choekyi Nyima and his family "in protective custody".
In November 1995 the atheistic Chinese government even installed a boy named Gyaltsen as the 11th Panchen Lama out of their own choice." - From Secret Tibet.
