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.
Around 4000 Tibetan nomads and farmers have been told to relocate from their ancestral lands in Muru township and Suru and Drugkhyung villages to Golmud city by the end of 2020. The relocation is part of plans to turn their homeland into the 50,200 square kilometre Mount Qilian National Park. Hundreds of thousands of Tibetans have been displaced by the Chinese government in recent decades.
