Contact is taking a break after 25 years of bringing you news of Tibet and Tibetan issues. We are celebrating our 25 years by bringing you the story of Contact and the people who have made it happen, and our archive is still there for you to access at any time, and below you can read the story of Contact, how it came into being and the wonderful reflections of the people who have made it happen over the years.
When and how Contact will re-emerge and evolve will be determined by those who become involved.
Jigme Gyatso Aka Jigme Gyaltsen, 39, a senior monk from Joney Dethang Khanpo Monastery in Joney County, Amdo in north-eastern Tibet has been released on “bail pending trial”. The Tibet Post International reports that he was detained on suspicion of planning a demonstration against the government on the eve of Tibet Uprising Day this year, and of “activities to split the motherland.”
