  • United Kingdom: Unruly and Shocking Behaviour of the Edinburgh Chinese Consul

    The practitioner described the Chinese person’s behaviour to us afterward. After some discussion, we realised that this was the Consul of the Embassy in Edinburgh. As he often comes and goes by car, we seldom see him. We were all shocked by his behavior, how could this kind of person be sent abroad as a diplomat?
  • Confirmed Deaths of Falun Dafa Practitioners Reach 1,000: In the Face of So Much Killing, What Should Be Done?

    These killings are different from shooting someone with a gun (although guns have been used against practitioners). Most of the deaths are as a result of torture behind closed doors. Although torture may be different than outright killing, its cruel murderous nature is the same. The hidden torture deaths are more brutal since they make the victims suffer longer and endure more pain. If the international community can give more support, it will bring Jiang to justice earlier and stop this persecution sooner. Let us work together even more. Helping kind people is also helping ourselves.
  • Shooting in South Africa Exposes the Jiang Group's Fear and Desperation

    I was deeply shocked after hearing the news on June the 28th of Australian practitioner David Liang being shot in South Africa, and that the heel bones in his right foot were shattered. I kept seeing David's face in my mind. Knowing David, I can tell you that he is a kind-hearted and upright person. Seeing the photos of his blood-stained feet, taken while in the hospital, I thought of his two young children and aged parents, especially his mother who is confined to bed and needs constant care. All his family depend on his income as a taxi driver.
  • Comparing the South Africa Shooting with the Jiang Group's Devious and Indirect Methods of Killing Practitioners in China

    An evaluation of the shooting incident on the night of June 28 in South Africa shows that there were five Falun Gong practitioners in the vehicle, yet only the driver, David Liang, was wounded in both legs and the car was damaged. There are some people who apparently do not take exception to an incident like this. In fact, if the details were to be carefully considered, one would see after calm and sober deliberation, the sinister and shocking nature of this crime.
  • Assistant Director of a "610 Office" Understands the Truth About Falun Gong

    He told me the following things. "I know what the TV said is all false. It is so obvious that the "Tiananmen immolation incident" is staged. I have been an assistant director in the "610 Office"(1) for two years and I know very well that those who practice Falun Gong are all good people. One time we brought thirty practitioners back from Beijing. No one said anything bad about Falun Gong. There are three bureau chiefs in our county who practice Falun Gong.
  • The June 28 Shooting Spree in South Africa Reveals that the Jiang Zemin Group Is Now Escalating Its Persecution Against Falun Gong Practitioners Outside of China

    David Liang is an Australian citizen who has never been to South Africa before, so it is impossible that he has any personal enemy in South Africa. It is evident that the gunmen’s motivation was not robbery either; otherwise, they wouldn’t have fled from the scene without trying to take anything from these Falun Gong practitioners. Third, David Liang, the only man who was gunned down in this shooting spree, was also the only man who wore a jacket with a Falun Dafa insignia.
  • In Memory of Fellow Falun Dafa Practitioner Ms. He Xiuling

    Could it be my good friend I had come to know I was reading about? I opened my eyes widely and read on. It was then that I learned her full name, He Xiuling, and the sad news of her death on March 11, 2004. Another kindhearted person was now dead as a result of persecution at the hands of Chinese police officers. There was no one nearby when she died, and she didn't even have on any clothes. Instead, she wore a handcuff on one of her hands that locked her to the sickbed and a bandage wound around her waist.
  • Commentary: From Staging the Tiananmen Self-Immolation to Hiring Gunmen to Attempt Assassination in South Africa

    In the Tiananmen self-immolation incident, before police had even begun to investigate the case, Xinhua News Agency immediately claimed that Falun Gong practitioners were involved. In the South Africa assassination attempt, before the South African police had even begun an investigation, a Chinese Embassy spokesperson in South Africa issued a statement and asserted "the Chinese government has nothing to do with the incident."
  • Commentary: Jiang's Tortures Are Evil and Don't Even Stop at Death

    I read a book that described all sorts of execution methods used throughout the world's history, many of which are pretty horrifying. Most victims of these brutal killings have been innocent religious believers. These execution methods and those people of faith who conquered their fear of death make me think of Falun Dafa practitioners today. Maybe their experiences are not as visibly horrifying as the scenes of early Christians being fed to lions, but the amount of their suffering is actually greater.
  • My Sister Alumna Jiang Yan

    Jiang Yan told me seriously, “In China, thousands of Falun Gong practitioners were illegally arrested, sent to forced labour camps and tortured brutally. A lot of them have already been tortured to death. Falun Gong taught people to be truthful, compassionate and tolerant at all times. The Chinese government should not persecute these good people.
  • Gunmen in South Africa and Police With Permission to Open Fire in China

    These are the first gunshots fired at overseas Falun Gong practitioners by Jiang's followers, who have been using all possible means in persecuting Falun Gong practitioners. Looking at what has been happening in mainland China, one will find that shooting freely has been one of the many ways the Jiang regime has been persecuting Falun Gong practitioners. This incident in South Africa is most likely just an extension of the Jiang group's state sponsored terrorism to overseas countries.
  • Record of the Crimes Committed by Zeng Qinghong, Who is Suspected of Being Behind the South African Shooting Incident

    Jiang Zemin's head political butler and most trusted minion Zeng Qinghong did everything possible to please Jiang Zemin in order to become a member of the Politburo's Standing Committee and gain more power. He played a large role in the planning and executing the persecution against Falun Gong in order to advance his political career. He became a main accomplice for Jiang's persecution of Falun Gong.
  • Public Security Officers Assigned to Monitor a Practitioner In China Learn the Truth

    Since Jiang's regime started the persecution of Falun Gong on July 20, 1999, the "610 Office" increased it's surveillance of Professor Wang, who is a Falun Gong practitioner. The methods they used to monitor him included internal control, monitoring his residence, confining him in a detention centre, and sending to him to a forced labour camp.
  • The Drive-by Shooting in South Africa Clearly Indicates the Fear Jiang and His Followers Have Over the Lawsuits Being Filed Against Them Overseas

    Jiang's rule is based on terror. During the past five years of persecution of Falun Gong practitioners, Jiang and his followers, including Zeng Qinghong and Bo Xilai, have abused the law and manipulated various government departments in order to brutally persecute Falun Gong practitioners. As of today, 996 practitioners are verified to have died of torture and other acts of persecution. Over 100,000 people have been sent to forced labour camps, and thousands sent to mental hospitals to be injected with drugs that damage the central nervous system
  • My Cancer Disappeared after Practising Falun Gong

    I am now 63 years old. I once suffered from esophageal and gastric cancer. I was a fruit merchant. I dealt with money the whole day and was addicted to doing business. Although Falun Gong practitioners often sent me Dafa truth-clarifying materials, my karmic relationship was not mature yet. I was not able to recognise that there is a profound Great Law...
