Yep, the colonists did have this tendency of "discovering" someone else's backyard. The name is Mt. Qomolangma. Not some freaking Europe trash name Everest.

There are paved roads all over the Alps, why can't the Chinese build roads in the Qomolangma?

Its not just that they want to build roads, they want to make Qomolangma a public place, and i just think it should not be turned into a public place if you know what I mean, and I respect Qomolangma, so that is y i am against this publicity... but hey, you have your opinions to, and ya I do agree, "Everest" should be called Qomolangma but thier are other names, so really, iif you think about it, thier is no true name for everest/Qomolangma...

Do you know Tiananmen Square Massacre in 1989? Do you know that your government in Beijing made its soldiers kill students on June 4th, 1989? Can you imagine how students were run over by tanks at Tiananmen Square? It has been only 19 years! China (government) is repeating the same thing in Tibet

zkiltez22 is just a nice outspoken kid, not those malicious racist hypocrite. so zkiltez22 i really actually respect ur concern, yet "pave a road" to the Mt, is currently beyond any administrations' ability. and just because the concern of the protection to the environment of the area, international climb community has its conventions. so if u want to climb here, learn to be a climber from now, and hopefully ur dream can come true. we should do something to protect our environment with wisdom.
