Australia: Practitioners Protest the Persecution During Wen Jiabao's Visit

On April 3rd, 2006, the leader of the Chinese Communist regime, Wen Jiabao, made his first visit to Australia since the disclosure of the secret Sujiatun concentration camp. His first stop was the Capital of West Australia, Perth. There was no large crowd as usual in front of his hotel to greet him, just some peaceful Falun Gong practitioners protesting the Communist regime's persecution of Falun Gong.

The protesting practitioners were blocked 50 metres away from the entrance to the Hyatt Hotel, drawing attention from the Australian media. To avoid having to see the practitioners, Wen's motorcade entered the hotel by a rear entrance.

Wen Jiabao's agenda included a visit to the Carbon-hydrates Research Centre of Curtin University. Led by a huge team of police cars, Wen arrived at Curtin University. Practitioners in golden exercise suites had been waiting along the roadside, holding banners reading "Falun Dafa is Great" and posters, and greeted Wen from less then five metres away.

Wen Jiabao currently has left West Australia for Canberra. What awaits him there will be an even larger group of protesting Falun Gong practitioners.
