Tensions have escalated between China and Tibet as the country's government prepares for its once-in-a-decade change in leadership. New protests by Tibetans have included a string of self-immolations that have drawn international attention.

In the below video being spread via YouTube, an effigy of Beijing's presumed heir apparent, Xi Jinping, takes a "Gangnam Style" stroll through the main street of Dharamsala along with Tibetan monks, elders, and activists. Watch for nods to some of the other unorthodox protest tactics used by Tibetans, including a 2011 boycott of Chinese vegetable vendors.
