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.
Tashi Wangchuk, 32, the Tibetan language advocate who has been detained for the last two years after appearing in a New York Times video petitioning for the right for Tibetan children to be educated in Tibetan, has been given a five year sentence. His trial in January ended without a verdict. His case has attracted worldwide support. Tashi has never called for independence for Tibet.
