(Clearwisdom.net) Practitioners gathered in the outdoor market in the southern city of Turku on July 13 - 15 to clarify the truth about the persecution of Falun Gong to the local people. Display boards told the story of the persecution through words and photos, while practitioners demonstrated the exercises and spoke to passersby about the true situation in China.

Practitioners paid particular attention to exposing the organ harvesting now underway in China. They also collected signatures on a petition to stop the persecution.
Many people received flyers and signed the petition over the three days. Several people told the practitioners, "What you've done is right. Well done, good luck to you!"
A lady came to a practitioner with a flyer in hand and asked for one more flyer for her friend. The practitioner used the simple English she could speak to tell her the facts of the persecution and the organ harvesting atrocities. She talked about the independent investigative report released by former Canadian Secretary of State for the Asia-Pacific region David Kilgour and human rights attorney David Matas. She said she saw it on the Internet and she was concerned about the human rights situation in China very much. The practitioner gave her a copy of Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party. The practitioner told her that the CCP's evil nature is described clearly in this book and she could understand why the human rights situation is so bad in China after reading the book. The practitioner also told her that almost 12 million Chinese people have quit the CCP because they realized its evil nature after reading this book. She immediately came to the stand to sign her name. She wished the practitioners success as she left.
After receiving a flyer, one man said, "I know Falun Gong. I've seen you on TV. Good luck to you."
A Chinese gentleman said that he has been in Finland for eight years. When the practitioner told him about the persecution against Falun Gong, especially when talking about harvesting organs from living Falun Gong practitioners, he said he believed that the CCP would do this kind of thing. When talking about the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party, he said he had experienced many things mentioned in the book; the CCP is really very evil. In the end, he took with him various materials and a copy of the "Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party". The practitioner reminded him that he should tell his relatives and friends about the CCP and its atrocities in China.
