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.
The annual prayer service remembering those who took part in the peaceful demonstrations in Lhasa, Tibet in 1989, protesting against Chinese rule in Tibet, was held in Dharamshala, organised by the Tibetan Government in Exile. In 1989 the Chinese authorities declared martial law and many Tibetan protestors were killed, injured and imprisoned, many have not been heard of since. The martial law remained in place for 13 months.
