  • Brisbane, Australia: Practitioners Support the 15 Million Withdrawals from the Chinese Communist Party

    On the morning of November 4, 2006, the Service Center to Quit CCP held a "Great Wall of Courage" activity to support the 15 million withdrawals from CCP. They also broadcast the news that Jia Jia, the secretary general of Science and Technology Association in Shanxi Province, left his Chinese tour group after arriving in Taiwan and publicly testified to the growing popularity and significant impact of the wave of party resignations in China.

    The Great Wall of Courage

    Mrs. Huang, a volunteer from the service center said: "We are very happy to see more than 15 million people have quit the party. We are here today to support them. Another purpose of this activity is to support Jia Jia, who departed the Chinese tour group in Taiwan, and brought a list of 100 people who want to quit CCP. We should encourage him. So, we held this activity, and encourage more people to quit CCP."

    Volunteers kept broadcasting the news of quitting the party and the truth of Falun Gong. Practitioners also passed out flyers and collected signatures to condemn CCP. Many groups of Chinese tourists passed by. Every time some Chinese tourists passed by, a volunteer told them: "We are all Chinese and we love our country. But, loving China is not equal to loving the CCP. So, please take this chance to quit the CCP. Let us make a brand new China without the CCP. Thank you. Have a good trip."

    Many Chinese read the banners and listened to the volunteers. Some of them accepted the truth-clarifying materials and copies of the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party.

    One man said that CCP has persecuted the Chinese people, and he hoped that the human right problems in China would be solved in a peaceful way. He said: "We support the freedom of speech. It is very good that the volunteers hold such an activity to support the withdrawals from CCP."


    Hungary: People Call for an End to the Persecution of Falun Gong

    On November 1st 2006, Hungarian practitioners gathered at Blaha Lujza Square to clarify the truth of Falun Gong and expose the brutality of the persecution.

     

    Hungarian people are concerned about the persecution against Falun Gong, and signing names to support Falun Gong.

    They displayed posters, handed out flyers, collected petition signatures and clarified the truth to passersby. Many people stopped and carefully read the posters.

    There were images displayed of various torture methods used on practitioners in Chinese prisons and labor camps, and information about the Kilgour-Matas report on unethical organ harvesting practices used on practitioners.

    Many people were shocked by the evil nature of the Chinese Communist Party's 7-year persecution against Truth, Compassion and Tolerance.

    A woman said "this persecution is evil! I just can't comprehend how someone could be so cruel. When I cut my finger I know it hurts, but how can these police officers [who persecute Falun Gong] live with themselves?"

    Some people seemed to go into a trance when reading information excerpts from the Kilgour-Matas report.

    Pointing to the posters, a man said "I can't believe this is still happening in the 21st century!"

    Another man said the real problem was not with Falun Gong, it was with the Communist Party, giving reference to similar forms of terror the Hungarians endured back in the Soviet Socialist regime.

    A young man told practitioners the persecution is a big human rights crisis and deserved more urgent action than the current conflict in the Middle East or tensions between civilians and the Hungarian Socialist-led Government.
