Tashi Wangdi () is the representative to the Americas of the Dalai Lama, Tenzin Gyatso. He held that position from April 16, 2005 to 2008.〔(Kasur Tashi Wangdi appointed Representative to Americas ), Tibet.com, March 31, 2005.〕 Since 1966 he served the Central Tibetan Administration, Tibet's government-in-exile. He held the position of kalon, or Cabinet Minister, in virtually every major department, including the Department of Religion and Culture, Department of Home, Department of Education, Department of Information and International Relations, Department of Security, and Department of Health. Before assuming his current position, Wangdi was the Dalai Lama's representative to the Indian government in New Delhi. "We are seeking a solution within the framework of the Chinese Constitution for a meaningful autonomy," said Wangdi of his government's status. "Until we are able to achieve that goal, we effectively have a government in exile with a charter —a Constitution. In that charter, His Holiness is effectively head of state, and the prime minister is head of government."〔Interview with Tashi Wangdi, David Shankbone, ''Wikinews'', November 14, 2007.〕 ==External links== *(Profile at the Office of Tibet ) *(Statement to the Congressional-Executive Commission on China ) on ''The China-Dalai Lama Dialogue: Prospects for Progress'', March 13, 2006 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tashi Wangdi」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
