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.
Commissioner Tenzin Dorjee, Chair of the United States Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF), has called for the release of “prisoners of conscience” in repressive regimes – including the Panchen Lama who is currently being held in China. The USCIRF looked at the cases of seven people held in Tibet, Vietnam, Xinxiang and Pakistan. Dorjee is the first Buddhist and person of Tibetan origin to chair the commission.
