China locks down restive regions

Chinese authorities are continuing to tighten security following days of protests by Tibetans in the main city, Lhasa, and in surrounding provinces. In one town in Gansu, rows of armed soldiers and heard broadcasts telling people to surrender, on Thursday, China admitted for the first time that troops had shot and injured protesters during the unrest.

What are they going to do later, when the Olympic Games start? Are they going to lock out whole areas because there is a chance that somebody will protest?

And I have to admit I like the part that China admitted shooting and …injuring people during the unrest were really laughable. Pictures with dead and reports are just illusions. Must be the water or the pollution!
