History
Tibet Work Committee
On January 2, 1950, Mao Zedong, who was still visiting the Soviet Union, telephoned the CCP Southwest Bureau, requesting the formation of a leading organ for operating Tibet. 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, Wang Qimei, Chang Binggui, Chen Mingyi, Liu Zhenguo, and Sanggyai Yexe as members, with Zhang Guohua as secretary, Tan Guansan as deputy secretary. 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. 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.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, and Ya Hanzhang to the original list of candidates for participation, and added Fan Ming as deputy secretary. 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.
