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.
Palden Trinlay, 26, a monk from Kardze monastery in Sichuan, has been released from Mianyang prison after serving a seven-year term for his role in the 2008 protests. He is reported to have been sent home in secret to prevent public celebration of his release, although people were waiting for him to arrive. Last year he was reported to be in poor health and without adequate medical treatment.
