The allegation is that political pressure from China led to the withdrawal..

Rumour is the Dalai is a great yak racer and China was scared..

The Lama

The one-l lama,
He’s a priest.
The two-l llama,
He’s a beast.
And I will bet
A silk pajama
There isn’t any
Three-l lllama.*

*The author’s attention has been called to a type of conflagration known
as a three-alarmer. Pooh.
