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.
Jampa Choegyal, 30, was taken into custody during the Tsechok festival at Chuwar monastery Dragyab county in Chamdo last month. He was held for two days on suspicion of “maintaining contacts outside of the region” for questioning about his relative Ngawang Jampa, who is now in Australia after fleeing Tibet, and told not to contact him. Radio Free Asia reports that he was beaten while in custody.
