Contact is taking a holiday!

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.

Bail for Spy

February 16, 2021;

Baimadajie Angwang, the police officer caught spying for the Chinese government on the ethnic Tibetan community in New York, has been granted bail on a $2 million bond. Angwang will be kept under house arrest until his trial. Bail was granted, in part, because of the spread of Covid-19 in the prison where he was being held. Angwang himself tested positive for virus on February 3.
