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.
Tsedrup Kyi, 32, has been released after serving a four year prison sentence for links to a self-immolation in December 2012 by Lobsang Gendun, and trying to prevent the police from seizing his remains following his protest. While in prison she spent a year in hospital and has been asked to pay back the cost of her treatment there – 30,000 yuan [$4,400 / £3,400].
