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.
Nine Tibetans from Horgyal village in Rebgong in Qinghai have been sentenced to prison terms of between three and seven years for creating an informal organisation urging the authorities to return confiscated land, reports Radio Free Asia. They say the land had been confiscated by the authorities in 2011 and subsequently left unused. The arrests are believed to be an attempt to suppress a campaign to reclaim confiscated land.
