I also question whether Republic of Korea is really republic in dictionary terms or in political terms.

Be more specific. What is illegal about the Dalai Lama's current political activities. Furthermore what does it matter? Illegal funding or not... I support his goal for the restoration of Tibet as an independent nation or at least as a truly autonomous region

This is important when America has an official relationship with China... while the NED (CIA sub-organization in real life) is supporting an independance movement inside and outside of China.
The UN is a wasted organization and lost its usefulness after the Cold War.

And that is relevant to my point how?

Look into other side. I saw the Tibet's side of this and it's a sheer crap from today's view
and the historical view. Like I said before, Tibet's worst encounter is accepting Tantric Buddhism to this area around the 9-11th century. It had caused many civil wars and power play because of this.

Depends on how sophisticated it becomes. If Tibetan resistance movements consolidate support from India and Nepal then I can see it becoming a thorn in the side of the Chinese.

Other than Nepal turned to a Maoist rebel country with weaker ties with India. And India is not in a good shape of dealing with China with its Maoist rebels in Eastern India.
Funny because the current neo-Maoist activism in China is downright illegal and they are being hunted down seriously.

You're not listening... national self determination. It doesn't matter what Beijing says or does.

Because we all know that national self determinism of UN is biased for Western perspective.
