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.
Seven people have been detained in Tibet for participating in online discussions about the rising number of cases of Coronavirus, and charged with spreading rumours and misinformation. One person, Chen, a resident of Gonjo in Chamdo, said people were arriving in secret from China and “causing panic”. Another, Tse from Tengchen in Chamdo, asked people to recite prayers to guard against infection.
