19-year old Gongsan Lamo was a saleswoman at Lhasa's Wenzhou Plaza. She says on the afternoon of March 14th, a mob rushed into her workplace and threatened all the Tibetans there to join them, otherwise they would burn down their shops.

Gongsan Lamo, March 14th Lhasa rioter, said, "I am young and naive. I took part in this illegal activity without being aware of its seriousness. Now I have realized that I was wrong. I will be a new person after I walk out of here."
