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.
Pasang Wangchuk, 37, a Tibetan businessman who has been in detention since last month in the Sichuan province, has been freed with a warning of “severe punishment” if he speaks out about his detention. He was detained after making offerings in public to mark the Dalai Lama’s 80th birthday. Wangchuk was also detained last year after staging a solo protest in the market area of Kardze town.
