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.

Monk Freed

June 8, 2018;

Lobsang Tenzin, 28, a Tibetan monk, has been released, three years early. He was serving a 10-year prison term for “aiding and abetting” the self-immolation protest in 2011 by fellow Kirti monk Phuntsog. Tenzin has returned to his home town in Ngaba. There is no news about his current health, and no reason has been given for his early release.
