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.
Human Rights Watch has reported that the Chinese authorities are “sinicising” religion by requiring Tibetan monks and nuns to act as propagandists for the Communist Party. They are now required to undergo political training and to demonstrate willingness to “play an active role at critical moments.” The implication is that they must agree to forestall or stop any attempts to protest against state policy.
