What happened to Tibetan leader Tulku Hungkar Dorje? Truth NOW!
Tulku Hungkar Dorje devoted his life to preserving the Tibetan culture. He had to flee Tibet for his safety, but was unjustly arrested in Vietnam by Chinese agents and died in their custody.

Tibetans and Buddhists around the world are demanding an investigation into Tulku's suspicious death, but even monks from his monastery haven't been allowed to see his body yet.

Vietnam is under intense pressure from China and Tulku could be cremated any day, destroying all evidence. That's why we need to act now: sign and share everywhere so we can take a massive call to Vietnam's key partners.
