Eliya Tsetan Phuntsog (Sadu, bij Leh, Ladakh, 1907/19081973) was a Christian who in Tibetan language published a translation of the New Testament in 1950. He was the son of Tibetan Bible translator Yoseb Gergan and became a priest of the Moravians. In the 1950s he experimented with a simplified spelling, which is more natural in today's statement. Buddhists found his attempt subversive, because it would remove the writing of the classic spelling out the ancient Buddhist scriptures.[1]
