(Clearwisdom.net) On the 25th of January, Czech and Slovak Falun Gong practitioners visited the south-Moravian city of Znojmo to promote Falun Gong and help people know about the genocide being waged against people who practice Falun Gong in China.
Practitioners made use of the peaceful atmosphere of this city and took time to thoroughly explain to people what Falun Gong is and why it is being so cruelly persecuted. Although this was the first time citizens of Znojmo had heard about Falun Gong, they knew a lot about the terror that the Chinese communist party has used to persecute its own people over the last fifty years. This made it easy for them to imagine how evil the persecution of people who practice Falun Gong and follow the values of Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance must be.
Practitioners also started to tell people the story of Chinese citizen Mrs. Qui Mingua, whose daughter studies in a college in Switzerland. She was kidnapped after her house was ransacked, and she was arrested because she practices Falun Gong. Her human rights were abused and she was not even allowed a legal representative. When people learned about this and the torture methods practitioners are exposed to, they signed a petition calling for the immediate release of Mrs. Minghua from prison. On this occasion, over ninety people expressed their wish for Mrs. Mingua to be set free.
There are three newspapers in Znojmo: Znojemsko, Znojemsk¨¦ Listy and the regional newspaper Rovnost. Reporters from each of these newspapers came to learn about Falun Gong and what is happening in China. Some already knew all about it. For those who didn't, as soon as they heard the facts about Falun Gong and the persecution, they stepped into the queue of people waiting to sign the petition.
