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.

Arrested, Beaten up

August 31, 2013;

Several Tibetans have been injured and some hospitalised in a “brawl” with security personnel who had been deployed in Nagchu County, where the recently closed Gaden Dhargyeling monastery is based in Shak Rongpo. The situation there has been “tense” with large numbers of security personnel deployed in the area, and arrests taking place. All movements in and out of the area are being monitored, and communications intercepted.
