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.

Pema Trinley, 22, and Chakdor, 32, two Tibetan singers, have been released after serving four years in a Chinese prison. They were arrested in July 2012 following the release of their album Agony of Unhealed Wounds which honours Tibetan self-immolators as well as praising HH the Dalai Lama. They were sentenced in a secret court in 2013. They come from Meuruma nomadic village in Ngaba.
