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.
Community gatherings and classes which are held to study the Tibetan language and religion are being “discouraged” in the Tibetan-populated county of China’s Sichuan province. Authorities fear the popular classes, which are taught by monks and nuns, may fuel opposition to Chinese rule, but although they plan to impose restrictions, so far no move has been made to forcibly close the classes.
