Contact is taking a holiday!

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.

Tibetan Flag Removed

May 11, 2017;

The University of East Anglia in England removed the Tibetan Flag from a display at an event to promote global diversity. When Chinese students complained that both the Tibetan and Taiwanese flags were undermining China’s sovereignty the student union apologised and removed the Tibetan flag. The Taiwan flag was not taken down as there were Taiwanese students to lobby for it to remain.
