Holland: Dutch Falun Gong Practitioners Hold a Demonstration in the City of Assen

On May 17th, 2008, Dutch Falun Gong practitioners held a demonstration in the city of Assen to protest against the on-going persecution of Falun Gong practitioners in China.

Assen is one of the fastest growing cities in Holland’s Northern Province Drenthe. With banners, flyers, petition forms and exercise demonstrations the people in Drenthe where informed about the nine year long brutal persecution.

Signatures were gathered for the ‘Millions of signatures’ petition campaign, demanding the Chinese communist regime to immediately stop its persecution of Falun Gong practitioners in China. After having seen the banners depicting Falun Gong practitioners being persecuted in China and having had explanations about the persecution, many would spontaneously come to the petition table to sign the petition.
