Tibetan Review is a prestigious English-language monthly journal and news website with its headquarters based in Delhi, India.[1][2] Established in April 1967 in Darjeeling, West Bengal by Lodi Gyari, the publication serves as a reputable and open and vibrant democratic platform for the in-depth discussion of the Tibetan issue and various relevant governmental and social topics pertaining to Tibet.[3]
History
[edit]Tibetan Review is an English-language journal published by Tibetan. It was initially known as The Voice of Tibet when it was founded in 1967 by Lodi Gyari.[4][5][6][7] The following year, its new editor, Mr. Tenzing Ngawang Takla, changed its name to Tibetan Review, which has been its official name since the January 1968 edition.
In 1971, the Tibetan Review faced financial difficulties and sought help from the exiled Tibetan government. A new department called the Information Office was established by the exiled Tibetan government, where the Tibetan Review and Sheja (Tibetan language journal) were housed together in Dharamshala, H.P., India. In 1972, Mr Tenzing Namgyal Tethong became the new editor, with Mr. Tamdin D Gyalpo working as an executive editor. Mr. Tethong served as the editor until June 1972, at which point Dawa Norbu [8][9][10] took over the responsibility for the Tibetan Review.[11]
Tsering Wangyal,[10] who was known as the "Editor," took over from Dawa Norbu in October 1976.[12] There was a brief period when Mr. Wangyal went to the US for an internship offered by the Alfred Friendly Press Fellowship, during which Mr. Lhasang Tsering served as the Acting Editor of the Tibetan Review from May to December 1986.[13][14]
Pema Thinley[15][16][17] has been the editor of the Tibetan Review since 1996.[18][19][20]
Over the years, due to its editorial independence, there were inconsistencies with the policies of the exiled Tibetan government. This led to criticism, especially from the Tibetan parliament in exile.[21] In April 1999, the Tibetan Review established the Tibetan Review Trust Society and transitioned back to being a non-government-funded institution.[22]
