HONG KONG: Talks between Chinese officials and envoys from the Tibetan government-in-exile were a "good first step," one of the Dalai Lama's representatives said here on Tuesday.

"All very candid. We had very candid discussions," said Lodi Gyari, one of the Tibetan spiritual leader's envoys who met Chinese officials in the southern Chinese city of Shenzhen.

"It was a good first step," he said, when asked to describe the talks which followed deadly violence in the region in March.

He was speaking at Hong Kong International Airport before flying back to India.
