Former Party Secretary Who Persecuted Falun Dafa Renounces His Communist Party Membership After Reading the Nine Commentaries
2005-05-14The former Party Secretary of our township participated in the persecution of local Falun Dafa practitioners. Through the persistent efforts of local practitioners in the past few years, he gradually realised the error in his thinking. And after he finished reading the Nine Commentaries, he realised that he had been so deeply deceived by the evil spirit of Communism that he had made a terrible mistake in his actions against Falun Dafa and those who practise Falun Dafa. He voluntarily went to the Township Committee and openly renounced his membership from the vicious CCP.

Incidents at the MacRitchie Reservoir and the Merlion Statue Show Singapore Placing Its Future in the Hands of the Chinese Communist Party
2005-05-13Prior to when the CCP started the persecution in 1999, we were not required to apply for a permit for any public activities. Falun Gong practitioners had the freedom to practise and promote Falun Gong to the public. Several hundred practitioners had repeatedly practised Falun Gong exercises publicly in Singapore in the past without needing a permit.

Chinese Communist Party Attempts to Bring Down Falun Dafa Website in Kansas
2005-05-13At approximately 3:00 a.m. Central time on May 2nd, 2005, the FDKansas.net web site was shut down due to a CPU over utilization spike on the hosting provider's server. This triggered an automatic shutdown by the hosting provider. When I called the hosting provider, they looked at the server log files and discovered that there were over 180 simultaneous downloads of several videos exposing the persecution of Falun Gong in China. This is a very unusual traffic pattern for this site.

American Law Professors Who Understand the True Situation
2005-05-11When I talked with a professor who works a lot with human rights law he understood very quickly how oppressive the Communist system in China can be. He told me he was once invited to give a scholarly talk in Beijing. When he arrived there the person in charge asked him what his speech would be about. He told them it would be about human rights, and the person in charge said that he wasn't allowed to discuss that topic.

How the Chinese Communist Party Spreads Lies in Order to Persecute Falun Gong (Part 2)
2005-05-10On the other hand, the CCP is very interested in brainwashing genuine practitioners in order to use them to defame Falun Gong. Teng Chunyan, a US resident, after being detained and brainwashed for three years in a Chinese prison, stated on a TV show that she really did not want to leave the prison, because the CCP officers were so "nice" and the prison was like "a paradise."

Persecutor of Falun Gong Practitioners Now Practises Falun Gong
2005-05-09When I played the role of monitoring the practitioners, I was deeply moved by the practitioners' courage. I was constantly thinking about the same questions over and over again: Why are they so firm, even under such inconceivable torture? How can they hold their temper with so much tolerance under such indignity? No misbehaviour was observed. They continued obeying "not striking back when beaten, not swearing back when sworn at." They truly have morality, conscience, dignity, and noble actions, and they are good people.

NTDTV has been transmitting uncensored programs around the clock to people in Mainland China and other parts of Asia via Eutelsat's W5 satellite. NTDTV opened a historic window of freedom in the sky above China.

Statement by the Head Secretary of the Alliance of Chinese Democratic Parties on Singapore's Detention of Falun Dafa Practitioners
2005-05-08Sixteen years ago, after the June 4th Tiananmen Square Massacre, Singapore Prime minister Lee Kuan Yew praised Deng Xiaoping after the killing of students and civilians in Beijing. Today, Singapore turns out to be the only country on earth, besides China, which detains Falun Dafa practitioners. It can be seen from these two incidents that the Singapore government is the ally of the ruthless CCP regime, a public enemy of the Chinese people, and it is against the battle of democracy and human rights in China.

UK: The Conscience and Future of Singapore
2005-05-08Before the persecution by the Chinese Communist Party took place in 1999, Falun Gong was also welcomed in Singapore. But after 1999, the Singapore Government closely followed the Chinese Communist Parties (CCP’s) footsteps, creating hundreds of difficulties for Falun Gong. The reason is simple: if one falls, the other is in danger; fellow sufferers commiserate with each other. In 2004, Li Guangyao praised the Tiananmen Massacre on 4th June 1989 launched by Deng Xiaoping, saying that if he were at Deng’s position, he would also have killed 200,000 students.

Contradictions Revealed in Singapore's Unjust Policies
2005-05-07The media in Singapore has frequently echoed the CCP's slander of Falun Gong while seldom, if ever, allowing the publication of articles defending Falun Gong. It appears that the persecution of Falun Gong was exported to Singapore from the very beginning. The witness police provided for this case is a local woman who, influenced by the media's slandering propaganda, mistakenly believed that Falun Gong is illegal in Singapore. So, when she saw Falun Gong being practised openly in public, she reported the practitioners to the police based on her "social responsibility."

The Epoch Times: Dictatorship and Autocracy in Singapore
2005-05-07It is very difficult for people who have never lived in Singapore to imagine and understand the nature of its dictatorship and autocracy. On the surface, it looks like Singapore has a democratic system and that people are granted the right to choose and vote. However, in actuality, it is a country with complete dictatorship and autocracy.

Reflecting on the Historic April 25th Appeal
2005-05-06The unusual attitude of the Tianjin City government and the ruthlessness of the police made it clear that they were acting under pressure from the central government. Nevertheless, the practitioners believed that it is not wrong to be a good person according to Truth-Compassion-Forbearance; they had witnessed firsthand that Falun Dafa is good. With trust in the government and the hope of abolishing the apparent misunderstandings, 10,000 Falun Gong practitioners voluntarily went to Beijing and petitioned at the State Council's Appeals Office near Zhongnanhai on April 25th, 1999.
