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.
Jampa Choephel, the uncle of Phakpa Gyaltsen (pictured) who jumped to his death earlier this month to oppose Chinese gold mining operations, has been arrested. He was looking after Phakpa Gyaltsen’s children. The authorities have given no reason for his detention. Protestors have been gathering to demand a halt to Chinese plans to build the mine and the situation remains tense.
