(Clearwisdom.net) Ahead of Norway's general election, leaders of each party received a special gift--copies of the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party, which has been responsible for 60 million people in China quitting the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). The leaders said that this kind of information was very much needed.
Norway's general elections, which take place every four years, kicked off in late August 2009. Each party set up its headquarters, distributed leaflets in Karl Johansgate, and hosted speeches to promote its own political agenda in an effort to gain votes. With the election on September 14 fast approaching, competition intensified. Leaders of each party also came out to give speeches and answer questions.
During the activities, all leaders received a precious gift - booklets and DVDs of the Nine Commentaries, which exposes the evil nature of the CCP and has led 60 million in China quitting the party. The leaders promised that they would read or watch it carefully.
The Falun Gong practitioner who gave out the Nine Commentaries said that the CCP's lies and tyranny have been a horrendous calamity for the Chinese nation for 60 years. "The fact that Falun Gong has been persecuted for ten years is a reflection of the CCP's intolerance of people's belief in Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. To stop the persecution, rid the Chinese nation of misery, and prevent the international community from being poisoned, it is critically important to help people see the true nature of the CCP."
