Will there be further protests?

Probably. The fundamental cause of the demonstrations has not been resolved and so tension will persist. Also, the Olympics will be held in Beijing this summer. Campaigners both inside and outside China have already started using the publicity surrounding the event to highlight their particular concerns. It is highly likely that those who want greater autonomy for Tibet will continue their campaign. One potential flash point could come when the Olympic torch arrives in Tibet in a few weeks' time.
