(Clearwisdom.net) On May 15th 2006, a week before German Chancellor Merkel's visit to China, an Asian specialist in the Chancellor's Office received representatives of Falun Gong practitioners, the China Democratic League and a German human rights organization. During the meeting, the three representatives called on Chancellor Merkel to pay attention to the harvest of living Falun Gong practitioners' organs and to urge the Chinese Communist regime to allow an independent investigation team composed of Falun Gong practitioners to conduct an investigation. At the same time, German Falun Gong practitioners rallied in front of the Chancellor's Office.

After the three representatives came out of the Chancellor's Office at 3:00 p.m., Ms.Waltraud, a representative of the German Falun Gong Association, spoke with our reporter: "We talked to the Asian specialist in the Chancellor's office about the atrocities committed by the Chinese Communist regime in the harvesting and sale of Falun Gong practitioners' organs for profit. According to a Chinese military surgeon, he witnessed over sixty thousand falsified documents stating that the detainees, mostly Falun Gong practitioners, volunteered to donate their organs. We also called on Chancellor Merkel to pressure China to allow an independent investigation team to enter China and conduct an extensive probe into the persecution against Falun Gong, and permit them to investigate any institutions without advance notice. We know that if pre-arrangements are made before a visit, all evidence of the persecution will be destroyed, and thus nothing could be found during our visit."

On the lawn in front of the Chancellor's office, from 10:00 a.m. through 6:00 p.m., Falun Gong practitioners demonstrated the Falun Gong exercises, gave out flyers, and staged reenactments of the cruel torture and organ harvesting. Liu Wei, a Falun Gong practitioner from Nordrhein-Westfalen, discussed the atrocities she underwent in a women's forced labor camp in Beijing from September 2001 through January 2003. In addition to physical torture such as cruel beatings, long periods of forced standing, and sleep deprivation, Ms. Liu also suffered spiritual torture such as being forced to view videos defaming Falun Gong and to do long hours of slave labor. These abuses have caused Ms. Liu tremendous physical and spiritual trauma.

Though the passers-by in front of the Chancellor's office were not as many as those in the downtown area, many people were shocked by the persecution reenactments. They stopped to learn more about the horrendous plight of practitioners in China.

Passersby sign the petition one after another "The persecution against Falun Gong is far more serious than what shown on the display boards."

A female student from China's Zhang Chun City also visited the exhibition booth. After practitioners explained Falun Gong's popularity in China before the persecution, she said, "At that time, there was a large number of people practicing Falun Gong in Zhang Chun." Upon seeing a practitioner taking Chinese brochures, she immediately asked, "Can I have one?" The practitioner replied, "Of course, they are for you."

Seeing her boyfriend taking pictures of the banners and of practitioners demonstrating the Falun Gong exercises, the student asked him if he had taken pictures of the simulated organ harvesting. Her boyfriend replied, "No, as it is really too cruel." Therefore, they just picked up some Chinese leaflets exposing the organ harvesting.

After listening to the practitioners' explanation of the atrocities, more than ten German high school students who passed by the booth signed the petition to protest against the atrocity of harvesting Falun Gong practitioners' organs. The petition signed by these students and other passersby will be submitted to the Chancellor' office before Chancellor Merkel visits China.

It happened that there was a head of a foreign country visiting Germany that day. Several journalists also approached the Falun Gong practitioners and took pictures and interviewed them.
