That statement applies to you being Han too - your level of education puts you into an elite category I'd have thought?

This is the thing. With the same background and education, I am a nobody when I am Han, and I am speaking for myself, not representing anyone. That would not be the case when I am Tibetan. I would be given a platform to broadcast my dissatisfaction with Chinese government, so on and so forth.

What does this tell you?

Why is this? Because of the government structure?
