Dear Sirs and Madams at the United Nations Refugee Agency:

Greetings!

My name is Xu Xinhui. I am seven years old and come from China. I am a young refugee under the protection of the United Nations. To be honest, I do not like being a refugee, but my mom says we have difficulties in China.

When I was a little over one year old, my mom left me. My dad said I would often wake up in the middle of the night and look for mom. After a while I forgot about mom. I grew up with my dad and my grandparents.

I went to a kindergarten at age three. I saw many other boys and girls had moms and I asked Dad, "Do I have a mom?" Dad said, "Yes you do. Your Mom loves you very much, but she went to a place far, far away."

When I was three, Dad took me some place and told me I could see Mom there. I was very happy. I saw many people wearing black clothes and I later learned they were police officers. They took Dad and me to a place and I saw Mom although we were separated by a thick pane of glass. I saw that Mom was very thin. She started crying as soon as she saw me, and she was very sad. We talked through a phone and I asked Mom, "Why are we calling each other when we are so close?" Mom laughed. Later I was told the place where we visited Mom was a prison. I've always remembered this visit.

Dad took me to a hotel on my fifth birthday and I saw Mom again. She was still thin but we happily celebrated my birthday. I asked Dad, "Why doesn't Mom come home? Why does she live in a hotel?" Dad did not answer my question and Mom told me that it's a brainwashing class for Falun Gong practitioners. Mom continued to practice Falun Gong after she was released from prison, so the bad people would not let her go home.

Mom finally came home after I was five years old. She took good care of me. She taught me to draw pictures and told me stories. Mom also takes good care of my grandparents and is kind to other people. She often helps people who have problems. I said to her, "Mom, I think you are a good person; why did the police take you away and put you in prison?" Mom said, "Because I practice Falun Gong. Falun Gong tells people to be good according to Truth, Compassion and Forbearance. There are many people who practice Falun Gong. The Communist Party and Jiang Zemin feared there would be too many good people, so they arrested us." I studied Falun Dafa with Mom and got rid of my bad habits of crying and throwing temper tantrums.

Dad went to the U.S. less than one year after Mom came home. Mom said, "Dad won't come back. The U.S. is a free and civilized society and Dad can freely practice Falun Gong there." I was very happy for Dad. Later, Dad told us to leave China. Mom and I came to Malaysia as refugees.

I have been living in Malaysia for nearly one year now. I was happy at first, but when I saw many boys and girls going to school with their backpacks, I really wanted to go to school, but Mom told me Malaysia doesn't allow refugees to go to school. I really want to go to school!

I have always been a smart kid. I recognized many written words when I was three years old, and I could read books at four. I completed second-grade math courses by myself within six months after I came to Malaysia. I can remember a poem after someone reads it two or three times, and many adults call me a genius. Mom says Falun Dafa gives me wisdom because I started listening to Teacher's lectures when I was still in her tummy. Falun Gong practitioners are very intelligent. Many scientists invented products that benefit mankind after studying Falun Dafa. Falun Dafa is a righteous Way, and it's not like what the Communist Party says. Mom says the Communist Party tells lots of lies and deceives people.

I miss Dad more and more. Dad has always loved me and I love him very much. I am afraid when I'm separated from my Dad. When airplanes fly across the sky I would think, "Are they going to America?" I made lots of paper planes and I hope they can take me to America, where I can go to school and see Dad, and my family will never be separated again. Sirs and Madams at the United Nations, can you deliver my wish to the people at the U.S. Consulate? The Communist Party persecuted my family and broke it up. Can you help us reunite? Please help me go to America as soon as possible. I will study hard in America and become an outstanding person, and I will be a useful person. Thank you!
