Switzerland: Raising Awareness in Zurich about the Persecution of Falun Gong

Falun Gong practitioners held an information day in Bahnhofstrasse in Zurich. They not only let people know about organ harvesting by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), but also called for an end to the CCP's persecution of Falun Gong. Numerous people came to support the activity by signing the petition.

At the Falun Gong booth, there was truth-clarification material in different languages. Falun Gong practitioners also set up photo display boards to let passers-by know about the atrocities happening in China. Banners hung on a tent read the CCP harvests organs for profit and incinerates practitioners’ bodies to eliminate the evidence. Please help stop the genocide of Falun Gong practitioners. Practitioners distributed fliers and demonstrated the five exercises of Falun Gong.

People support an end to the persecution of Falun Gong

Bahnhofstrasse is the busiest street in Zurich. The banner reading "Please help stop the genocide of Falun Gong practitioners" attracted many people’s attention. They stopped to look at the photo display boards exposing the persecution. One after another pictures stunned and shocked these passers-by. Many signed the petition calling for an end to the persecution to show their support.

A western woman said to practitioners, “I really want to help you. But the CCP is so far away. How can I help you from here?” A practitioner replied, “You can spread the truth of persecution to people around you. You can also sign the petition to show your support.” She signed the petition immediately. A person said “the form of signing the petition is good. We can express our support from the bottom of our hearts.”
When viewing photos about four Swiss practitioners protesting against Jiang Zemin’s slaughtering order in Hong Kong, a woman from Hong Kong said, “I am so moved. Falun Gong is brave and extraordinary. Justice is sure to win. Please insist on the appeal. I sign the petition to support you. The persecution should be stopped as soon as possible.”

Mother and son: "Chinese people have no freedom of belief"

A Taiwanese woman traveled to Switzerland with her two sons. Her sons saw the photo of Gao Rongrong being disfigured from the distance. They asked, “Mom, what happened to that lady?” The mother stepped forward and looked at the brutal photos carefully. She told them that the display was held by Falun Gong practitioners to protest against the CCP persecution. She pointed to the display board and said. “The CCP detain Falun Gong practitioners in jails and torture them with various cruel methods. How ghastly.”

Her two children asked in confusion, “Falun Gong is good. There are a lot of people practicing Falun Gong in Taiwan.” The mother said, “We don’t have the communist party in Taiwan. People are free to practice Falun Gong. Mainland China is ruled by the communist party. Chinese people don’t have human rights or freedom of belief. Any different voice is sure to be oppressed and persecuted.” Before she left with her two children, the mother asked for more material.

Chinese people withdraw from the CCP and its affiliated organisations

On the day, quite a few Chinese people came to ask for material as well as to look at the display. Falun Gong practitioners spoke to their fellow countrymen and exposed the persecution, especially the CCP atrocities of harvesting organs from living practitioners for profit and cremating their bodies to eliminate the evidence. These people listened attentively. A person said, “The CCP can commit any crimes.” A practitioner replied, “Good and evil have their own rewards. If human being cannot pay their debts the divine being will make them do so.” A practitioner took out a special edition of Epoch Times to show the Chinese people. In Guizhou, a 270 million year old inscribed stone was discovered, revealing six characters. The Chinese Communist Party Collapses. The CCP is sure to be eliminated, and people would withdraw from the CCP and its affiliated organisations to save their own lives. A woman from China agreed to quit the party. A practitioner helped her do so with a pseudonym. She was also encouraged to ask her family to do the same thing. She said that she regretted joining the CCP herself and thus she opposed her family joining such an organisation.

When two practitioners walked up and greeted a couple from China, they sighed and said, “It’s so good to meet you. We feel that you are our family. We saw a young Chinese man just now. We greeted him but he did not acknowledge us at all. We were so disappointed. You are kind people.” A practitioner replied, “We practice Falun Gong so we should treat others well.” Before long, they accepted the truth-clarifying material from practitioners. Practitioners further explained to them that as the CCP is doomed to be eliminated and the CCP quitting campaign has been getting its momentum, over 40 million people have denounced the CCP. Besides, practitioners also recommended that they quit the CCP so as to have a bright future. They finally agreed to quit the CCP and thanked the practitioners before they left.
On that day, many Chinese students in Switzerland along with Chinese tourists used pseudonyms to withdraw from the CCP and its affiliated organisations after they knew about the truth.
