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.
Dharamshala community, a hub for tourists from across the world and home to thousands of Tibetans, is left without cash this weekend. Locals, tourists, Tibetan monks, nuns and laypeople alike stood for hours queues to banks and ATMs, often unable to get cash. Tourists and newly arrived Tibetans seemed to face the greatest hardships as they do not have Indian bank accounts, nor can they withdraw cash from ATMs.
