Like all interviews this interview suffers very badly from lack of clarity of names of places, dates of birth of interviewee and so on. Actually you can't get useful information from children of 5 or 7 years. So it doesn't make much sense. In fact, it is boring and most listeners would ignore it. So your stated goal is not achieved or defeated. Both interviewer and interpreter should have much better background knowledge of Tibet in all aspects and the interpreter should have better command over Tibetan language so that the interviews are more interesting and impactful.
