The satellite dish was provided by China's central government; along with a solar battery charger, a truck battery, and a TV so the nomads can watch Chinese broadcasts and learn the Chinese language; an attempt, some say, to assimilate indigenous Tibetans.

From the book Robo sapiens: Evolution of a New Species, page 125.
