Indonesian Authorities: Do Not Go Down in History as an Accomplice to the CCP
2005-05-27On May 6th, 2005, Indonesian practitioners called on the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) to stop the cruel persecution of Falun Gong practitioners. They stood in the broad space across the street from Jakarta's Chinese Embassy. With two banners, they held a peaceful and reasonable appeal for about 15 minutes. During the appeal, the atmosphere was tranquil and calm. They did not speak loudly or shout any slogans. At the end of the activity, when all the practitioners had walked 20-30 meters away, a group of policemen suddenly chased them down and carried practitioners in yellow T-shirts to the police car. -

They have used various ways to clarify the truth to people about Falun Gong. They firmly believe that the truth will finally drive away the lies and peace will defeat violence.

The Final Verdict from Hong Kong's Highest Court Highlights the Illegal Nature of the CCP's Persecution
2005-05-26On May 9th, 2005, the New York Times published an article with facts that raised doubts about whether the CCP is governing China according to its own laws.

A Judge's Unjust Ruling in Singapore - Abuse of Law is Not Rule of Law
2005-05-25It is hard to imagine the absurdity of a particular court case in Twenty-first-century Singapore. On February 23rd, 2003, two Falun Gong practitioners were practising the Falun Gong exercises which consist of slow moving, meditative exercises at a waterfront park and distributing VCDs containing information on how Falun Gong practitioners are being persecuted in China. The case is really a non-issue, but in Singapore, the practitioners were charged one year after the incident and were tried another year later. The most absurd part is that the two Falun Gong practitioners were actually convicted and sent to jail. -
My 28 Days in a Singapore Jail

If they moved, the person would be severely punished. The jail rationed water to its inmates. During my last eight days in jail, I was put in a cell with two others and our water allotment was grossly insufficient. We had no choice but to take the water from the toilet. -

Commentary: Denouncing the Verdicts in Singapore - Authorities Suppress Human Rights
2005-05-23The prosecutor failed to provide effective evidence to show that the accused really held or handed out VCDs. Neither the prosecutor nor the police were able to agree on the legal basis of "assembly." The judge ignored this in her verdict. The verdict gives the police absolute power in deciding the criteria of a permit. It would seem the court hands over the constitutional rights of the people to the government and police. The police can decide which constitutional rights the people can or cannot exercise. Isn't this a totalitarian rule, disregarding the rule of law?. -

An Omen for Singapore?
2005-05-22Only a nation that reveres morality will encourage its people to care about others regardless of their nationalities, to give back to the community, and to promote humanity worldwide. This is what truly makes a great nation! A great nation does not earn its prestige because of its size or its foreign exchange reserve, but because of its concern for and its contribution to other nations and people of other nations.
