Here is a little article on international politics, and how long someone can hold a grudge. The Dalia Lama is meeting with President Bush soon, but the Chinese government wants the meeting canceled as they fear it will hurt foreign relations. The Lama was exiled from China 48 years ago for an uprising in Tibet, and the Chinese haven't forgotten about him. He was exiled for attempting to gain independence for Tibet, and has worked since then for peace and human rights in that part of the world.
