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.

Bomb Scare

January 22, 2018;

Two bombs were found near the gate into the grounds of the Mahabodhi Temple in Bodh Gaya where His Holiness the Dalai Lama is teaching. A small explosion was heard – which turned out to be an exploded thermos in the kitchen – this prompted a search which located the bombs, each around 10kg. A bomb disposal unit was called to deal with them and security has been increased.
