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.
Many Tibetans whose passports were seized earlier this year have not had their documents returned, reports Radio Free Asia. The passports were seized as part of China’s measures to prevent pilgrims from travelling to India to attend the Kalachakra in January, the authorities promised to return them by March. Additionally, no new passports are being issued.
