Microsoft has barred
the use of the
Bhutanese
government's
official term for
the Bhutanese
language, Dzongkha,
in any of its
products, citing
that the term had
affiliations with
the Dalai Lama. In
an internal
memorandum,
Microsoft employees
were told not to use
the term Dzongkha in
any Microsoft
software, language
lists or promotional
materials since
"Doing so implies
affiliation with the
Dalai Lama, which is
not acceptable to
the government of
China. In this
instance, replace
"Dzongkha" with
'Tibetan - Bhutan'."

Why is it that China
would object to a
term that they
mistakenly associate
with  the Dalai
Lama, one of the
great men in the
world today,
recipient of the
1989 Nobel Peace
Prize? It is because
as head of the
legitimate
government of Tibet
he is the symbol of
Tibetan resistance
to the colonial rule
initiated by the
Chinese invasion of
1950. In other
words, Microsoft is
refusing to
recognize the
existence of the
national language of
Bhutan so as not to
offend China's
sensibilities over
its colonization of
Tibet.
