China is marking the 60th anniversary of the founding of the Xizang Autonomous Region, established in 1965. State media reports emphasize what officials call “historic progress” in economic growth, living standards and infrastructure over the past six decades in the region also known internationally as Tibet. While no precise figures were disclosed, Xinhua said regional gross domestic product has expanded sharply since the mid-1960s, with both urban and rural residents recording significant income gains. The news agency also highlighted rising tourist arrivals as Xizang positions itself as a global destination. Officials further cited an extensive build-out of highways, rail lines and air links that has improved access to the high-altitude region, alongside initiatives to promote low-carbon development and expand clean-energy capacity.
