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.
Over 700 people were killed and more than 850 injured during a stampede at the Hajj pilgrimage near the holy city of Mecca in Saudi Arabia. Two million pilgrims were taking part; this is the deadliest incident to occur during the pilgrimage in 25 years. Saudi Arabia’s King Salman has ordered a safety review and said there was a need “to improve the level of organisation and management”.
