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.
Tsering Woeser, the popular, Beijing-based Tibetan writer, posted information on facebook about Kalsang Yeshi who self-immolated earlier this month, and included a link to a video of the monk in flames. Facebook removed the post citing the “graphic” nature of the video. Tibetans accuse fb, which is currently blocked in China, of cowing to pressure from Beijing to enable them to enter the Chinese market.
