(Minghui.org) Falun Dafa practitioners in Indonesia held peaceful protests in front of the Chinese embassies in Jakarta and Surabaya in the afternoon of July 23, 2022. They called for an end to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)’s persecution of Falun Dafa practitioners, which has gone on for 23 years.

The director of the Indonesian Falun Dafa Association, Mr. Gatot Machali, said that the CCP’s genocidal crimes against Falun Dafa must stop immediately.

Practitioners in Indonesia told people about Falun Dafa on July 23 and collected signatures on a petition calling for an end to the persecution.

The rain in Jakarta that day did not deter practitioners from informing people about the CCP’s persecution of Falun Dafa and showing their support for the practitioners who are still being persecuted in China.

Mr. Gatot Machali, the director of the Indonesian Falun Dafa Association, said in his speech that Falun Dafa improves people’s moral standards, ethics, and health. The CCP’s genocidal criminal actions against Falun Dafa practitioners, which have continued for 23 years, must stop immediately. He hoped that the people in Indonesia would recognize and reject the CCP and support the righteous and compassionate Falun Dafa practitioners.

Practitioners hold a candlelight vigil to mourn the Falun Dafa practitioners in China who were persecuted to death by the CCP.
