  • A 6-10 Office Agent in Shandong Province Admits the Persecution is Not Sustainable

    That means we would be out 30,000 yuan for each practitioner. To transform 10,000 people we would need 3 million yuan. Where can we get that kind of money? At so many places, with so many staff members and so many helping and coaching personnel to do the work, if there is no money, no one wants to do it! In addition, the Falun Gong practitioners that have claimed to be transformed were all pretending, and we know that they will continue to practice when they get out. All we can do is scare a few cowards and force them to write something so we can get our reward money."
  • A Leader in the Bureau of Industry and Commerce: "The Party is So Corrupt, We Really Need Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance"

    I even gave a Falun Gong brochure to a leader of the Forestry Bureau and told him the truth about Falun Gong. He said, "Li, a young person who works in our office, also practices Falun Gong. He is a really good person. He relinquished his condo to others when our office gave out condos. Such a good person has been arrested by the police department and sentenced to two years' imprisonment. His sister-in-law also practices Falun Gong and has benefited from the practice. She is a good person too. I heard that the head of the local police station arrested her one day and she died the next day."
  • An Examination of The "Self-Immolation" Incident Reveals the Deceptive Practices of the Xinhua News Agency

    Xinhua News Agency insisted that Falun Gong was responsible for the self-immolation incident. But there are many thousands of practitioners in Taiwan, where they share the same Chinese culture as people on the mainland. Why has no self-immolation occurred there? In Europe and the US there are also many Falun Gong practitioners, why has there been no self-immolation?
  • Falun Gong Practitioners Braving the Snowstorm to Reveal the Persecution on the Streets of New York

    "I saw two Caucasian men come and sign the petition as well. One of them said excitedly, “I come from Argentina. I just don’t understand why the Chinese Communist government would do such a thing!” A practitioner explained, “The Chinese Communist government uses the media to launch its smear campaign to incite its people to hate Falun Gong."
  • 134 People Declare that their Words and Deeds Under Forced Brainwashing are Null and Void

    A "solemn declaration" is a person's public statement declaring to the world that whatever he or she has done or said under duress or deception that was against Falun Dafa is null and void. Most of these statements have come from Falun Dafa practitioners in China who wished to express regret that, in the face of physical torture and brainwashing, they had signed documents renouncing Falun Dafa and guaranteeing not to practise again.
  • A Twelve-year-old Child: "Who Can Save My Dad?"

    My dad had to go to the city to take on some labour work in order to make a little bit of money. Even so, he was still harassed by the local police. They tried to force him to be "reformed", but my dad never gave in. He often traveled to visit his family and friends, always taking CDs containing factual information about Falun Gong with him to hand out, so people could learn about Falun Gong and the persecution. Almost everyone in our village has watched the Falun Dafa VCD, including the truth about the staged "self-immolation" incident.
  • People's Hearts Determine Their Future

    Four or five days later, my brother visited me again. He was full of energy and his voice was once more strong and deep. I commented on the change in his appearance. He said, "Well, of course. I did what you suggested. Otherwise, I didn't think I'd get my health back." My elder brother's health continues to improve. Once more he can do everything, and now he tells everyone he meets that Falun Dafa is good and amazing.
  • The Chinese Communist Party's (CCP) Tightly Controlled Media and Its Role in the Staged "Tiananmen Square Self Immolation Incident"

    The strict control by the CCP concerning freedom of the Chinese media is without equal. This is the result of its accumulated experience from "years of the revolutionary struggle." To retain and strengthen its political power, the CCP will under no circumstances let go of its hold on the media. It understands clearly how to control and keep a tight grip on public opinion. Today, when information technologies are so advanced, tight control over freedom of the press can only result in loss of popularity.
  • From Monitoring Falun Gong Practitioners to Wanting to Learn Falun Gong

    I told him some detailed cases about those who treated Dafa with kindness being rewarded with good fortune and those persecuting Dafa receiving karmic retribution. After he heard this, he asked, "Is it really true?" I said, "How could it be not true? Think about it, you want to earn some more money, so you monitor Dafa practitioners; but your wife was sent to the emergency room on the evening of the Chinese New Year this year, and then was sent to the hospital for treatment...Would you say it is not true?"
  • Falun Dafa Teachings Spread Widely, Giving Laiwu City a New Outlook

    A woman in her seventies lives in a village in Laiwu City, Shandong Province. After a Falun Dafa practitioner exposed the truth to her about the persecution, she understood that the propaganda on Chinese television was full of lies. She asked the practitioner for 30 fliers and distributed them herself. When she had distributed all the fliers, a miracle occurred. Her asthma that she had suffered from for many years suddenly disappeared! She felt very energetic afterwards.
  • The Tiananmen Square Self-immolation Is a Complete Hoax

    After watching the programme he was angry and stated, "This is such a show! How could the immolators enter the square when the police checked everyone? How could the police have fire extinguishers and fire blankets, ready to use, unless they had them ready before the immolation? Why did they look so relaxed when putting out the fires? Who recorded Wang Jindong's voice when he shouted the slogans? How is it possible that his hair and the plastic bottle [between his legs] remained intact during the fire?" He sighed and said, "It's really unbelievable that such a large country and such a major Party resort to such base means to frame Falun Gong."
  • What If a Clearwisdom Reporter Were Allowed to Interview the Participants of the Staged "Self-Immolation Incident?"

    According to CCTV (Central China Television), the "Self Immolation Incident" was sudden and unexpected, yet the photographer recorded Wang Jindong's loud shouts, detailed pictures of Wang's face and entire body, as well as policemen slowly walking in front of him. Technically, the recordings are the result of a lot of careful preparation, not scenes captured in a hurry.
  • The Epoch Times: CCP Brings Up the Self-immolation Hoax Again To Divert Attention from Zhao Ziyang's Death

    It is no coincidence that the self-immolation case is being brought out again at this time directly following the death of Zhao Ziyang. A spokesperson for the World Organisation to Investigate the Persecution of Falun Gong (WOIPFG) said, "This is the same dirty trick the CCP habitually uses to divert attention. However, the CCP may be playing with fire, because its role in the Tiananmen self-immolation incident has aroused serious international attention. The CCP is widely suspected of single handedly directing the self-immolation incident and murdering potential informers."
  • The Story of a Young Fighting Cock

    People in China lose their tempers very easily. They fight each other all the time like fighting cocks. A trivial thing can cause boisterous bickering or even a brawl. Whether it is on the bus, on the streets, in the stores, in the schools, in the offices, in the factories, or even in rice paddies, people are fighting each other one way or another. When they don’t fight with you directly, they stab you in the back. No one wants to cooperate with other people. In fact, today’s Chinese people are notorious for arguing and fighting with each other constantly. I cannot help wondering: Why do today’s people in China fight so much? Where do we get our bad tempers?
  • A Notice from the CCP Committee of Hengshui City Reveals the Systematic and Illegal Nature of the Persecution of Falun Gong

    Both are from the Office of Chinese Communist Party (CCP) Committee of Hengshui City, Hebei Province. One was labelled "secret" and titled "Notice from Hengshui City CCP Committee Office Regarding the Issuance of its July 21st, 1999 Standing Committee Meeting Minutes" ("City CCP Committee Notice" for short). The other was "Urgent Notice on Several Specific Requirements for The Current Task of Handling and Solving Falun Gong Issue" ("Urgent Notice" for short). These two notices are direct evidence of the CCP's persecution of Falun Gong and reveal the systematic nature of the illegal persecution.
