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.
Rinchen Tsultrim, a Tibetan monk who is serving a four and half years prison term on a charge of speaking about Tibetan political and social issues on social media, is still being denied contact with his family – while other prison inmates are allowed monthly family visits – reports Radio Free Asia. He was detained in July 2019 in Ngaba county and charged with separatism or “working to split the country”.
