Sikyong Penpa Tsering attended the Light of Truth Award ceremony at the Cannon Caucus Room, where Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi was honored by the International Campaign for Tibet for her unparalleled dedication to the Tibetan cause.

The Light of Truth Award, symbolized by a butter lamp, represents the exceptional illumination each recipient has brought to the Tibetan issue. It is most fitting for H.E. Nancy Pelosi to receive this prestigious honour.
