Early in the morning of September 20, about 1,000 Falun Gong practitioners gathered on the square of Penghu County Government to practice the Falun Dafa exercises as a group. The scene was spectacular and peaceful. Everyone looked energetic and refreshed in the morning sunlight. After that, the practitioners held a group Fa-study [principles and teachings of Falun Gong contained in the book Zhuan Falun] and experience sharing. There were also two groups specially for children, and four groups for Taiwan dialects. Dafa practitioners, young or old, all actively joined this activity of publicly trying Jiang.

On the afternoon of September 20, the practitioners marched through downtown Magong, the highlight of the day's activities. A Western practitioner and a Taiwan practitioner holding a banner reading "Jiang is being sued in the US," led the parade. Local people along the road were curious and many came out from their shops and stood at roadside to watch.

On the evening of September 20, the procession went back to Fishermen's Dock, and again the practitioners held lectures of morals and collected signatures.
