Paris Conference Video Series: Oystein Alme

Voice of Tibet (VOT) is an international initiative funded by the government of Norway to broadcast uncensored news to the people of Tibet.

But this voice is silenced with remarkable consistency by the Chinese authorities, fearful that Tibetans can have access to alternative sources of news and information.

VOT Director Oysten Alme told the Paris conference about its frustrating experiences with Chinese jammers.

He also talked about the following subjects:
--The Chinese constitution unequivocally protects freedom of expression and freedom of the press.
--Voice of Tibet is jammed continuously and sometimes from several locations in China.
--International institutions in charge of monitoring illegal radio jamming declare themselves impotent to stop the Chinese authorities.
