Sweden: Collecting Signatures and Clarifying the Facts in Gothenburg

The local government of Biskopsgården declared May 16th 2003 as Biskopsgården Falun Dafa Day. To let more people know the facts about the persecution of Falun Gong and the illegal arrest and detention of Swedish Falun Gong practitioner Mrs. Pirjo Svensson, practitioners in Gothenburg held activities in Biskopsgården. The activities included a petition signature collection and talking to people individually to let them know the facts. Many people who already knew about Falun Dafa went to sign the petition of their own accord, whilst others came to talk with practitioners to find out the truth.

One restaurant owner is very supportive of Falun Gong. He half jokingly said to his customers, “All customers who have a meal in this restaurant should sign their names to Falun Gong practitioners’ appeal for the release of Pirjo”.
