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.

Parliament Impasse

August 5, 2021;

Tibetan Youth Congress, Tibetan Women’s Association, Students for a Free Tibet and the National Democratic Party of Tibet have appealed to members of 17th Tibetan Parliament-in-exile for an immediate resolution to the ongoing deadlock. The oath taking anomalies have created the impasse and Parliament has been unable to elect a Speaker and Deputy Speaker, which in turn has disenabled the new Sikyong to elect his ministers. The NGOs also called for the formation of an independent committee to amend the ambiguities in the charter.
