(Clearwisdom.net) On the afternoon of January 18, 2009, Falun Gong's Divine Land Marching Band held a march for about two hours in Sakae, the business area in Nagoya, Aichi-Province. The practitioners wanted more people know about the grace of Falun Gong and the persecution of the practice in China.

The band lined up in four rows and marched in good order, playing, "Falun Dafa Is Good," "Drums and Trumpet Shake the World in Ten Directions," "Fa Rectifies the Cosmos," and "Delivering Treasure." Their playing caught the attention of many locals to stop and take photos. Many people accepted Falun Gong flyers and newspapers exposing the persecution.

After the band played, practitioners held banners that read "Falun Dafa Is Good," "Truth-Compassion-Forbearance," "Falun Dafa Spreads Across the World," and 'Disintegrate the Chinese Communist Party and Stop the Persecution" in Chinese and Japanese.

During the entire procession, quite a few police officers helped to regulate traffic. Near the end of the march, there was a light rain. Afterwards, a police officer told the practitioners, "Your band members march in such good order. When will you have another event? Please let us know."
