History

Tibet Work Committee

edit

On January 2, 1950, Mao Zedong, who was still visiting the Soviet Union,[1] telephoned the CCP Southwest Bureau (Chinese: 中共中央西南局), requesting the formation of a leading organ for operating Tibet.[2] The CCP Southwest Bureau then reported to the Central Committee of the Chinese Communist Party that the 18th Army would be the main body responsible for advancing into Tibet, and proposed the establishment of a Tibet Working Committee, with Zhang Guohua, Tan Guansan (Chinese: 谭冠三), Wang Qimei (Chinese: 王其梅), Chang Binggui (Chinese: 昌炳桂), Chen Mingyi (Chinese: 陈明义), Liu Zhenguo (Chinese: 刘振国), and Sanggyai Yexe as members, with Zhang Guohua as secretary, Tan Guansan as deputy secretary.[3] This plan was approved by the Central Committee on January 24, 1950, and the first enlarged meeting of the Party Committee of the 18th Army was held in Leshan, Sichuan Province, from January 27 to 30, announcing the decision of the Central Committee and marking the formal establishment of the CCP Tibet Work Committee.[4] Li Jue was transferred to be the second chief of staff of the 18th Army and was added as a member of the Tibet Work Committee; on May 19, the Southwest Bureau approved the appointment of Phuntsok Wangyal as a member of the Tibet Work Committee; on September 24, Sanggyai Yexe was transferred to work in Xikang and left the Work Committee.[5]

On June 11, 1951, the CCP Central Committee, in communication with the CCP Southwest Bureau and the CCP Northwest Bureau, approved the addition of Fan Ming, Mu Shengzhong (Chinese: 慕生忠), and Ya Hanzhang (Chinese: 牙含章) to the original list of candidates for participation, and added Fan Ming as deputy secretary. [6] On March 7, 1952, the CCP Central Committee telegraphed to the Tibetan Workers' Committee, deciding that Zhang Jingwu would also be the secretary, Zhang Guohua the first deputy secretary, Tan Guansan the second deputy secretary, and Fan Ming the third deputy secretary.[7][8]

Tibet Autonomous Region Committee

edit

On September 1, 1965, with the approval of the CCP Central Committee, the Tibet Workers' Committee was transformed into the CCP Tibet Autonomous Region Committee.[9] Zhang Guohua became the first secretary of the Party Committee.[10]
