Dalai Lama

In 2011, reflecting on South Africa’s refusal to grant him a visa to attend the Archbishop’s 80^th birthday, His Holiness the 14^th Dalai Lama said, to much hilarity: “Some Chinese officials describe me as a demon. I even tell them, ‘yes, I have horns’… Please live long. I’m looking forward to your 90^th birthday . At that time don’t forget to send me an invitation. Then we can test your government.”
