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.
Checkpoints have been set up on the approaches to Larung Gar Buddhist Academy, the major Buddhist Academy in eastern Tibet which has recently undergone partial destruction. All visitors, including monks and nuns, are being questioned and are required to show permits before encountering a second checkpoint where they are questioned further before being allowed to enter.
