Tibet's story of progress highlighted

Since the peaceful liberation of the Tibet autonomous region in 1951, the region has made all-around progress and historic achievements, officials said at a news conference on Friday.

"Over the past seven decades, the central government has been attaching great importance to Tibet-related work, and greater efforts have been made since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China in 2012," said Sonam Nyima, director of the regional Development and Reform Commission.
