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.
Geshe Jampel Lobshe, 53, a senior religious leader living and teaching in Tibet and described as “a very courageous and bold spiritual leader”, has died. He had been discharged from hospital in Chengdu and sent home to die from an unspecified illness. His body is at Sershul monastery in Kardze; thousands of people have gathered for mass prayer services, so far there are no reports of Chinese interference.
