Indonesia: Introducing Falun Dafa on Bali Island

In order to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Falun Dafa's public introduction in May, Falun Gong practitioners on Bali Island, Indonesia have been holding a series of activities since April 14, 2012.

The first activity was held on Kuta Beach. At 4:00 p.m. practitioners did the exercises in a large group and held up banners to help people learn about the benefits of Falun Dafa and expose the Chinese Communist Party's (CCP) lies that were concocted to defame Falun Gong.
