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.
Wen Guodong, who was Vice Governor in the Amdo region of Tibet [Ch: Qinghai] from 2009-2020, has been given an 11-year prison sentence for taking bribes during his time in office there. Chinese state media report that Wen took more than $3 (£2.3) million in bribes from mining and construction groups, businesses and individuals. He was also fined $300,000 (£230,000) and ordered to return the assets.
