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.
Golug Jigme Gyatso, 44, the monk who has arrived in Dharamshala after being on the run from the Chinese authorities in Tibet, has described his torture in prison. He was hung from the celing and beaten, repeatedly, and suffers subsequent long-term damage to his health, but said at a press conference that his “spirit is unbroken”. Jigme was arrested for his part in making the film “Leaving Fear Behind”.
