During the Easter holiday, on April 15th and 16th 2006, Falun Gong practitioners in Scotland organised a series of activities to let more people know about the Chinese Communist regime’s brutal persecution of Falun Gong. In particular, practitioners publicised recently exposed crimes in Chinese secret concentration camps, where organs from live Falun Gong practitioners have been harvested for commercial profit and then their bodies were cremated to destroy the evidence. They appealed to the UK and international communities for their support and demanded a thorough investigation into the labour camps in China and that the criminals be brought to justice.

Falun Gong practitioners’ banners, posters exposing the brutal torture, and demonstration of the Falun Gong exercises attracted many people’s attention.

A western student said, “I know Falun Gong. To be more accurate, I know Falun Gong quite well. I often visit your Minghui and Yuanming Web sites. My essay concerns the relations between human rights of Falun Gong and economics. I fully support your struggle for human rights.”

After reading posters and their illustrations, a Jewish person came over to sign our petition to show his support. He said that these criminals should be brought to justice wherever they escaped to.

A young Scottish couple were extremely shocked to learn that Falun Gong practitioners’ organs are harvested while they were still alive. They couldn’t believe this violence could occur in the 21st century. When practitioners explained to them with data and relevant evidence, they said they would write to their MP demanding an investigation.

A mother came to sign our petition with her child. Practitioners reminded the mother that because some posters were quite shocking, it might not be suitable for the child. The mother said, “It is very unfortunate these terrible things happen. Children should learn that human rights abuse still exists in this world. They should also express their support for your actions.”

A tourist said after signing the petition, “I saw Falun Gong in Prague. I also showed my support for you there.”

Another tourist said to practitioners that he learned from London practitioners about the atrocities committed against Falun Gong practitioners in Chinese secret concentration camps. He encouraged practitioners to continue their efforts to let more people know the truth and push for a thorough investigation.

A few Falun Gong practitioners from the Czech Republic who currently live in Scotland drove three hours Edinburgh for the activities. Although they didn’t say much, they could be seen everywhere during the activity.

During the Easter festival, the Edinburgh government organised many performances in the parks near the city centre. Falun Gong practitioners have joined the celebration for many years. They also had a stand near the stage this year. Practitioners taught children how to make paper lotus flowers. They also presented paper lotus flowers with the words “Falun Gong Truthfulness Compassion Forbearance” to Children and their parents as Easter gifts, informing them of the meaning of the lotus flower and Truthfulness Compassion Forbearance.

A long queue formed before the stand. A mother said, “My child and I like your lotus flowers very much. Please give me one with words “Falun Gong Truthfulness Compassion Forbearance” on it. I feel that it when the lotus flower together with Truthfulness Compassion Forbearance is more meaningful”.
