(Clearwisdom.net) After the Chinese New Year Splendor show on February 8, an Asian family was taking photos in the lobby of Radio City Music Hall. When asked for their impressions of the show, the mother told the reporter that she liked the beautiful colors and costumes, and that her favorites were the fan and drum dances.
The father, Mr. Ronm Retanip said, "The dances were great. The actors were attractive." He bought a ticket to the show last year, but missed it because he was ill, but he was happy that he made it this year. He said the whole family enjoyed the show very much and hoped the Divine Performing Arts would present the show every year in the future.
Mr. Retanip is a Philippine-American. He works for a bank as a financial analyst. He often goes to China for business, so he has good understandings of the current situation there.
Mr. Retanip talked about two performances in the show which exposed the persecution of Falun Gong. He said that international society focuses on the economic development in China, and many countries want to do business with China, which makes the Chinese government a strong economic power. He said, "The Chinese government has money. So they try to suppress everybody with money. They try to change everything with money."
He continued, "The Chinese Communist Party wants to distort history and cover up the truth. But history cannot be changed, and truth is always truth. Falun Gong practitioners have exposed the true history to people, and are showing a true China to the world."
Mr. Retanip believed that this show demonstrated the true state of current Chinese society to the world, which woke up a lot of people. He hopes that the truth will spread around the world, and that the people living in China, who live in a largely closed society, will learn the truth soon.
Mr. Retanip congratulated the Divine Performing Arts on their success and wished them even bigger success in other cities. He said, "Passing on the truth through the form of art works well. Please keep it up. I believe that China will show a new face to the world in 10 or 20 years. A bright future will come soon."
Mr. Retanip believes that the future Chinese society will accept Falun Gong. He believes that the principle of "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance" will benefit society and make Chinese people change in a positive direction, and that this principle will help China open the doors to the world and become more influential in international society.
