Russia: Practitioners from St.Petersburg Let People at Tourist Attractions Know about Falun Dafa

On August 5th, 2006, Falun Gong practitioners from St. Petersburg held an activity at a tourist destination, Alexander Gardens, which attracted many visitors. Many were interested in the “World Needs Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance” banner and a photo exhibition organised by practitioners. People read the information boards carefully, took leaflets and chatted with practitioners. Many were appalled by the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) persecution of Falun Gong, especially selling for profit organs harvested from living practitioners. One after another, they signed to condemn and support the international community to comprehensively investigate the CCP’s atrocities. According to some, the evil Communism is simply totalitarian tyranny. It persecutes people, not allowing any different voices. Wasn’t the former Soviet Union exactly like this?

Paper lotus flowers were very popular with adults and children alike. A baby in a stroller passing by whimpered to mum, pointing at the lotus flowers. Mum took a little flower for the baby. The baby laughed happily.
