Tibetan flag flies high outside council
History was made Friday morning when the Tibetan flag was raised outside Blue Mountains Council chambers at Katoomba.
It is the first time in Australia a Tibetan flag has been flown outside a local council chamber.
The small but vocal Tibetan community cheered and sang their national song as Dhongdue Kyinzom, a member of the Tibetan parliament-in-exile and Cr Kerry Brown did the honours.
