“Introducing”? HPPE has already translated several of Jamyang Kyi’s posts, as the post to which you link *clearly states*. It even links to the very moving translation of her detention (http://www.highpeakspureearth.com/2008/11/letters-to-norzin-wangmo-by-jamyang-kyi.html).
Thank you for your comment Therese! Of course I should have written that I was introducing Jamyang Kyi to Global Voices :) HPPE has been translating Jamyang Kyi’s blogposts for several months now and they are all worth reading. Thanks also for linking to Jamyang Kyi’s first 2 letters to Norzin Wangmo. Jamyang Kyi’s account of her own detention is called “They” (http://www.highpeakspureearth.com/2008/11/they-by-jamyang-kyi.html).
