Khampa, Northern in China

Khampa, Northern in China The Northern Khampa are part of the Tibetan nationality in China. They are nomadic and live on a high mountain plateau. The Khampa have a reputation for aggressiveness among neighboring tribes. "Stories were told of the cruelty with which they sometimes put their victims to death. They go so far as slaughtering pilgrims and wandering monks and nuns - although they profess to be Buddhists, the Kampa religion is little more than a crude imitation of the ideals of the pure form of Buddhism." Ministry Obstacles The Khampa live in an area that is remote, and they are often nomadic.
