(Clearwisdom.net, January 4, 2004) At Christmas time, people come to Dublin to see the sights and do their shopping. This year the Christmas visitors to the city were greeted by the sight of Falun Gong practitioners demonstrating the Falun Gong exercises. Since this is the fifth year that practitioners have been demonstrating the exercises on the busiest street in Dublin, many people are already familiar with Falun Gong and the persecution in China.

Over the past five years, practitioners have handed out tens of thousands of copies of leaflets and other materials. Practitioners have also talked with thousands of passersby. On top of this, many more people have come to begin to practice Falun Gong.
The main way of spreading Falun Gong to the people of Dublin has been the weekly Saturday demonstration on Grafton Street, one of the main streets in Dublin. Practitioners have told passersby of the goodness of Falun Dafa and have explained to them the crimes that the Jiang regime has committed against Falun Gong in Mainland China.
Dafa practitioners have also held a symbolic public trial of Jiang Zemin's crimes on this street. The lawsuits filed against Jiang worldwide and the ongoing efforts to bring Jiang to justice in people's hearts, and in a court of law have also been emphasized and brought to people's attention.
