Tokyo: Tibet's exiled Buddhist leader, the Dalai Lama, pointed to what he called China's "ruthless policy" as prompting the recent deaths of Tibetan monks who set themselves on fire in protest.
The Nobel Peace Prize laureate called on Beijing to change its approach to ruling over the Himalayan region.
"For their own interest, not just the interest for certain sort of problem here and there, but for the whole country's sort of future, they have to act (with a) realistic sort of policy," he told reporters today at a Tokyo hotel, while in Japan to visit victims of the devastating March 11 tsunami.
At least nine Tibetans in their late teens and 20s have self-immolated since March in protest of Chinese rule, and five of them have died of their injuries. Many Tibetans consider the Dalai Lama as their rightful leader.
The self-declared Tibetan government-in-exile has described the self-immolations as tragic acts and called for the international community to urge Beijing to open a dialogue on its policies in Tibet and traditionally Tibetan regions of western China.
"Actually, the local leader must look what's the real causes of death," the Dalai Lama said of the China. "It's their own sort of wrong policy, ruthless policy, illogical policy."
Beijing accuses the Dalai Lama and his supporters of encouraging the immolations.
The Dalai Lama fled the Himalayan region in 1959 amid an abortive anti-Beijing uprising and is reviled by China's communist government.

OSAKA, October 29: Tibetan spiritual leader His Holiness the Dalai Lama arrived in Japan earlier this morning on a 10-day visit which will see him travel to the worst hit areas of the devastating tsunami that struck the island nation in March this year.
The Dalai Lama had briefly visited Japan last April to offer prayers and attend a memorial service at Tokyo's Gokokuji Temple for the victims of the earthquake and tsunami.
Arriving from New Delhi, the Dalai Lama was received at the Tokyo Narita International Airport by Lhakpa Tshoko, the Representative of the Liaison Office of His Holiness the Dalai Lama for Japan and East Asia and Rev. Fujita Kokan and Rev. Saito Ugyen of Koyasan University.
Ruthlessness only will not be good for all
Upon arrival at the hotel, the Dalai Lama briefly interacted with Japanese reporters.
Responding to a question on the recent spate of self-immolations in Tibet, the Tibetan spiritual leader said that Chinese leaders should heed to the genuine grievances of the Tibetan people.
"This incident of growing self-immolations in Tibet needs to be studied from philosophical, religious and political view points. It is a sign of deep desperation; Chinese leaders need to look into these incidents more seriously. Ruthlessness only will not be good for all."
While saying it was "too early" to hope for "big change" from China's next leaders, His Holiness noted that "harmony must come from the heart".
Referring to the mass uprisings in Tibet in 2008, followed by the Uyghur uprisings in 2009 and the mass movements in Inner Mongolia this year, the Dalai Lama said, "trust and fear cannot go together".
Travelling from Tokyo, the 76-year old Tibetan leader arrived in Osaka, the country's commercial capital later in the afternoon. The Dalai Lama is scheduled to give teachings on the Heart Sutra and also give a public talk on overcoming life's difficulties at the Osaka Maishima Arena tomorrow.
During the visit, His Holiness is scheduled to give teachings and public talks, meet with religious heads and interact with scientists.
