The Tibetan Trade Delegation to the US and the UK stand outside 10 Downing Street with Prime Minister Clement Atlee. The photo shows, from left to right, Khenchung Tubten Tsepel Taikhang (younger brother of Shakabpa), Finance Minister Wangchuk Deden Shakabpa, Yampel Pangdatsang, Prime Minister Clement Atlee, Surkhang Lhawang Topgyal and Kaludharma Ratna (interpreter). An Advanced Political History of Tibet misidentifies Surkhang Lhawang Topgyal as his father Dzasa Surkhang Surpa Wangchen Tseten, but in fact it was Surkhang Lhawang Topgyal who was part of the trade delegation as its interpreter.
