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.
Jigme Gyatso has been released after serving five years in a Chinese prison. He has returned to his home in Sangchu County’s Labrang town in Gansu province but is forbidden from wearing the monk’s robe again, and from returning to his monastery. Jigme was arrested in 2006 for attending a Kalachakra teaching by HH the Dalai Lama in India and was rearrested in 2008 for partaking in a peaceful protest.
