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.

Elderly, Beaten, Hospitalised

September 12, 2013;

An elderly Tibetan was “beaten so badly that he was left in critical condition in a local hospital” for speaking out against the Chinese government’s campaign of “political education” in villages in Tibet. Dayang, 67, a resident of Nagchu in Driru county, called for Tibet’s independence and long life of the Dalai Lama while holding a white scarf in his hand on September 3. His condition remains unknown.
