(Clearwisdom.net) December 10, 2006 was World Human Rights Day. Many human rights-oriented societies and groups of people who feel that their rights have been threatened, have used this occasion to participate in peaceful demonstrations and parades.

For the third consecutive year, Falun Gong practitioners in Jakarta were invited by the Indonesian Legal Aid Foundation to participate in this march, which is centered around the Hotel Indonesia Roundabout, in the heart of Jakarta’s Central Business District (CBD).

Approximately 50 Falun Gong practitioners stood on the sidewalks and around the water fountain of the Welcome Monument. Practitioners held banners with written statements opposing the acts of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), condemning the CCP for the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners and asking for this irrational crime to be stopped immediately. Practitioners also exposed CCP's illegal organ removal from living Falun Gong practitioners and the cremation of the bodies to destroy evidence.

Besides conveying their message through the banners, practitioners also performed anti-torture reenactments to expose the atrocities of the Chinese police towards Falun Gong practitioners in China. Many TV stations and mass media covered this event, and interviewed one of the practitioners.

After the various participating groups assembled, the walk toward the Presidential Palace started at around 11:00 a.m. The procession was quite long and received a lot of attention from the onlookers as we passed by. After the practitioners arrived in front of the Presidential Palace, again practitioners stood side by side displaying the banners. A few moments later, practitioners left in an orderly manner.
