In Tibet, the majority of Muslims are Hui people. Antagonism between Tibetans and Muslims stems from events during the Muslim warlord [[Ma Bufang]]'s rule such as the [[Ngolok rebellions (1917–49)]] and the [[Sino-Tibetan War]], but such hostility was suppressed after the [[annexation of Tibet by the People's Republic of China]].<ref name="Demick"/> However, renewed Tibetan-Muslim violence broke out in the wake of the gradual liberalization of China, that resulted in increased movement of people, such as Han and Hui Chinese, into Tibetan areas.<ref name="Demick"/> Muslim restaurants were attacked, and apartments and shops of Muslims were set on fire in the riot in mid-March 2008, resulting in death and injury. Tibetans also boycotted Muslim owned businesses.{{sfn|Fischer|2005|p=17}} In August 2008, the main mosque in [[Lhasa]] was burned down by Tibetans during the [[2008 Tibetan unrest]].<ref>{{cite news|date=28 March 2008 |title=Police shut Muslim quarter in Lhasa |url=http://www.cnn.com/2008/WORLD/asiapcf/03/28/tibet.china.ap/ |work=CNN |location=Lhasa, Tibet |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080404073742/http://www.cnn.com/2008/WORLD/asiapcf/03/28/tibet.china.ap/ |archive-date=4 April 2008 |url-status=dead}}</ref> Some Muslims avoided overt display of religious identity in the wake of the violence. Many Hui Muslims also supported the repression of Tibetan separatism by the Chinese government, complicating their relationship.<ref name="Demick">{{cite news|last=Demick |first=Barbara |date=23 June 2008 |url=https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-2008-jun-23-fg-muslims23-story.html |title=Tibetan-Muslim tensions roil China |newspaper=Los Angeles Times |access-date=28 June 2010 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100622013126/http://articles.latimes.com/2008/jun/23/world/fg-muslims23 |archive-date=22 June 2010 |url-status=live}}</ref> Problems also exist between Chinese-speaking Hui and Tibetan Hui (the Tibetan-speaking [[Kache]] minority of Muslims).<ref>{{cite book| first=Shail |last=Mayaram| title=The other global city| url={{google books |plainurl=y |id=tOZ1pBTJvp4C}}| access-date=30 July 2010| year=2009| publisher=Taylor Francis| isbn=978-0-415-99194-0| page=75}}</ref>
