• Commentary: How the CCP Manipulates the Law and Human Rights Issues to Conceal its Persecution of Falun Gong (II)

  2005-04-18
  The charge against most Falun Gong practitioners who were found guilty and received guilty verdicts was "using cult to sabotage the implementation of law." From the written documents of the verdicts by the courts, the charges lack proof, are without legal foundation and the cited law articles are mostly nebulous. Such unjust trials have been held over the past six years in courts throughout the country. The punishment for Falun Gong practitioners can be as high as a 20-year prison term.

• Falun Gong Practitioners' Kindness Helps People See through the Chinese Governments Propaganda

  2005-04-18
  When I got into a taxi, I told the driver the facts of the persecution of Falun Gong. The driver said that he had been to Tiananmen Square and that the Square was very big. If someone wanted to set himself on fire, it would be impossible for the firemen to come to rescue him within a period of time as short as portrayed on the TV and that the self immolation was an obvious lie. He knew the self-immolation was fake the first time he saw it on TV.

• Commentary: How the CCP Manipulates the Law and Human Rights Issues to Conceal its Persecution of Falun Gong (I)

  2005-04-17
  Laws just get announced and the Chinese citizens have to accept them. When it comes to individual cases, the ruling is often already set before the courts open up to hear the cases. The trial is only a showcase. In fact, the CCP uses the law to deceive the public, cover up its violence, fake the trappings of civilisation, enslave the Chinese people's thoughts and dictate their words and actions.

• Cases of Karmic Retribution in Heilongjiang, Sichuan and Chongqing Provinces

  2005-04-17
  Each time we publish news of this nature, we do so with heavy hearts. These people started off as public servants, but under the intense pressure applied by Jiang Zemin's regime, they were pushed into persecuting Falun Dafa practitioners. In the process of destroying the lives of kind, law-abiding citizens, they have sealed their own fates and inevitably faced karmic retribution as punishment. If it weren't for Jiang Zemin's wicked orders, perhaps their fates would have been different

• Epoch Times: Withdrawals from Chinese Communist Party Surpass 700,000

  2005-04-15
  The average number of withdrawals from both the Communist Party and the Youth League is 15,000 to 20,000 per day. Due to the strict intensified Internet blockade in China, the number of people who can declare their withdrawals online is restricted. Nevertheless, the number indicates the rapid spread among Chinese people of news about the withdrawals and the book behind the movement, the Nine Commentaries on the Chinese Communist Party, published by the Epoch Times in November.

• Worldwide Commentaries: Eutelsat’s Bowing to the Pressure from Beijing will Harm Global Investors' Interests

  2005-04-13
  According to a report on the website of Reporters Without Borders on March the 15th, 2005, bowing to Beijing’s pressure, Eutelsat will stop broadcasting the programmes of the New Tang Dynasty TV (NTDTV.) It was reported that since its subsidiary NSS started to broadcast the NTDTV’s programmes to Asia, China included, on July the 1st, 2003, the Paris-headquartered Eutelsat Satellite Company has been repeatedly threatened by the Chinese Communist regime demanding to cancel all the programmes provided by the NTDTV.

• Petition Letter Asks President Bush to Urge Eutlesat to Reconsider Its Decision to Deny Service To NTDTV

  2005-04-13
  If NTDTV is silenced, it will enable one of the world's worst violators of media freedom and human rights to re-establish full censorship over the broadcast information available to its citizens. In light of our nation's pre-eminent role in promoting transparency, openness and freedom overseas, the silencing of NTDTV's broadcast to China is an unacceptable outcome.

  2005-04-12
  Since the year 2000, each March and April there are one to two thousand Falun Gong practitioners from Europe, Asia, Australia, North America and South America going to Geneva to raise awareness of the persecution against Falun Gong in China. Where does the money for all their travelling and materials come from?

• Dear Colleague Letter in US Congress Asks President Bush to Ensure NTDTV Broadcasts to China Not Cut

  2005-04-12
  Unfortunately, Eutelsat, a Paris-based satellite company that transmits NTDTV over Asia, has apparently caved in to pressure from the Chinese government to stop beaming content that is uncensored and sometimes critical of the PRC. Eutelsat has notified NTDTV that it will stop broadcasting the channel to Asia on April 15th. If Eutelsat succeeds in silencing NTDTV, it will enable the PRC, one of the world's worst violators of media freedom and human rights, to once again re-establish full censorship over broadcast information available to its citizens.

• What Will You Do When the Wave of Withdrawal from the Communist Party Comes Unexpectedly?

  2005-04-11
  There have been many lessons like this over the course of history. People are accustomed to predicting what will happen in the future based on their own life experiences. However, many important things that occur in human society are beyond people's imagination. For instance, the Cultural Revolution, the Tangshan earthquake, the collapse of the communist Soviet Union, the fall of the Berlin Wall, the outbreak of SARS, the tsunami in South Asia were all unexpected by many people before they actually happened.

• A Labour Camp Guard Has a Change of Heart

  2005-04-11
  In Liaoning Province there was a guard who worked at the Fushun City Forced Labour Camp. Since the persecution of Falun Dafa started, he was deluded by the lies issued by Jiang Zemin and his regime and was extremely vicious and fierce toward the Falun Dafa practitioners in the labour camp. He frequently assaulted the practitioners savagely, acting as a hatchet man for Jiang's regime.

• Unyielding in the Face of Brutality; Seeking Justice with an Unshakable Belief

  2005-04-09
  Even under such conditions, practitioners across the country, their families and people in the legal and judicial field, including lawyers, have not given up seeking justice and filing lawsuits against these vicious thugs. In this article, several examples are cited below. We hope that people will see through the violence and threats, and just how people of justice and bravery in China are fighting these crimes in a rational and peaceful fashion.

• Epoch Times: Letter from London: Communism--the God That Failed

  2005-04-08
  Serendipity is the name given to the gift of making unexpected and happy discoveries by accident. Actually, upon reading a recent copy of Epoch Times (Special Edition) that I found on a London Underground train, I am inclined to believe that a Higher Power may lie behind some such joyful discoveries.
