(Minghui.org) My friends and family who visited Hong Kong and Macau recently told me that they saw Falun Dafa practitioners and truth clarification sites. They were very excited. Many tourists from China also saw Falun Dafa banners and flyers. However, the Hong Kong, Macau, and mainland China tour guides threatened the tourists, saying that they should not accept materials from practitioners or get near the booths, so the tourists could only look from a distance. They couldn't accept flyers or sign their names to withdraw from the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), otherwise everyone on the bus would run into problems. They even told the story about one tourist who was arrested at the safety inspection site because he accepted one flyer. As a result, everyone on the bus was detained for a day.
The tour guide in Macau even claimed that practitioners were paid to clarify the facts about Falun Gong. When asked who paid them, the tour guide said, “They are paid by the American government.” My family told me that was the most ridiculous response he could have given.
Some of those on the tour initially wanted to take a look. Because of the threats, they were afraid of affecting the others on the bus, so they stayed away from the truth clarification sites. Several young people who accepted the flyers did not dare to read them and tossed them in the trash can. Such a shame.
So that people can learn the facts about Falun Gong, overseas practitioners use their own money and explain the facts in their spare time. Overcoming all obstacles, they have continued to do this for over ten years. Because the CCP fears that its crimes will be publicized and that people in China will learn the truth from people in a free land, it resorts to tactics such as threatening people to prevent them from learning the truth about Falun Gong.
Not all tour guides act like that, however. There are reports on the Minghui website that some tour guides have created opportunities for tourists from China to hear the facts about Falun Gong. They will thus receive great benefits.
Some experience sharing articles from practitioners in China have said that when they went on a group tour, they clarified the facts to the tour guides and the effect was very good.
Practitioners in Hong Kong and Macau, please seize the opportunity to explain the facts about Falun Gong to the local tour guides. This will make our truth clarification efforts very effective.
It is a good opportunity for people in China to learn the truth when they travel overseas. We need to make good use of such opportunities to save more sentient beings. I hope that our practitioners can create even more opportunities. I also would like to find more experience sharing articles addressing the subject of clarifying the facts to tour guides in Hong Kong and Macau.
