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.
Parents in Tibet are now expected to take responsibility for teaching their children Chinese and to this end parents are required to attend workshops and classes so they can learn the language and teach it to their children. A new edict last year requires all kindergartens in ethnic rural areas to use Chinese and not Tibetan and the parents, mostly farmers and nomads are expected to support this.
