Chinese People: CCP Should Not Persecute Falun Gong

Mr. Huang said Falun Gong is good for the whole world, should not be persecuted

Mr. Huang has been living in Segamat for over 30 years. He read a Falun Gong flier, and said that this practice benefits people in every country, and therefore the more people learn about it, the better. After learning about the persecution by the Chinese communist party (CCP) in China, he said, “The persecutors shouldn't use violence to cope with it, they can learn about it if they don't understand. This practice benefits the whole world, why do they persecute it?”

Upon learning about the CCP's organ harvesting of living Falun Gong practitioners, Zaleha said that it is unforgivable, she said, “If the organs are from voluntary donors, that's no problem; if the organs are from the persecuted group, and obtained in a forcible means, I can't accept it, it's unforgivable.”
