Who is “safe” in the Central Tibetan Administration (CTA) elections?
For years, voters in CTA elections have clearly witnessed an unavoidable reality:
Under the current electoral system, not everyone is subject to the same standards and levels of scrutiny.
In past elections and related dispute resolutions, the following scenarios have inevitably recurred:
The first scenario is “clear accusations without investigation.”
The second scenario is “protracted disputes without resolution.”
The third scenario involves “significantly different treatment standards depending on the objectives.”
For ordinary candidates and grassroots runners, even minor procedural flaws or inappropriate expressions often result in swift warnings, penalties, or even outright disqualification.
Therefore, this is not merely a misjudgment by an individual employee, nor a random deviation from a single event, but rather a long-standing structural protection mechanism in which relationships, status, and influence effectively supersede the rules.
When oversight truly targets these crucial points, election committees often choose to evade key issues and delay procedures, ultimately rendering oversight a mere formality.
Voters are not unaware of these facts.
What is truly disappointing is not that the system had problems in the past, but that these problems have recurred without being openly discussed, effectively corrected, and responsibly resolved. Doesn't this demonstrate the absurdity of the electoral system?
