Exiled Tibetans to elect new political leader
Exiled Tibetans across the world will vote on Sunday to elect their political leader or "Sikyong" in the second such election. The Sikyong, as leader of the Central Tibetan Administration, will be responsible for all political decisions, as the current Dalai Lama relinquished his political authority. The election will help Tibetans have an elected leader after the Dalai Lama.
