Go figure... can't say that I am suprised by this. Kinda like a oxymoron.

| Actually, Tibetan flags are made in India too, legally, thus subject to tax. I guess demand is higher than supply. ^^ |

Hence the made in China tag.
Sort of like when I buy "made in Australia" I've yet to see "made in New South Wales" or "made in Queensland",I have yet to find "made in New Hampshire" on anything either.
I wish Tibetans well in their pursuit of freedom though. |

None of these places consider themselves Chinese. |

China invaded and annexed Tibet, hence why it would be ironic that a "Free Tibet" flag would be made in China. |
