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.

New Speaker

December 3, 2018;

Pema Jungney was sworn in as the new Speaker of the 16th Tibetan Parliament in Exile. He succeeds Khenpo Sonam Tenphel – neither of them gained a majority for the five-year position of Speaker in May 2016 so they are each serving two and a half years. Pema Jungney is the longest serving Tibetan legislator and has served the Tibetan Government-in-Exile over the last 28 years.
