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.
Tsultrim Gyatso, a former monk at Labrang Monastery who was given a life sentence in 2009 by Sangchu Intermediate People’s court following his arrest in 2008, has had his sentence reduced: the People’s court claims he has “reformed” after showing “remorse”. He is expected to be released in 2026 when he will be subject to seven years of 24/7 surveillance. He is reported to be in poor health.
