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.
This year’s Miss Tibet contest has been called off as nobody has applied to take part. The founder and director, Lobsang Wangyal, says he hopes people will apply for next year’s contest, which will be the 18th. He also announced the winner of his company’s Free Spirit Award for this year: Rebiya Kadeer, the Uyghur activist who campaigns against Chinese government policies in her native East Turkestan, or Xinjiang.
