  • New York: Practitioners Call on United Nations to Immediately Investigate Sujiatun Concentration Camp

    On noon on March 13, 2006, Falun Gong practitioners in New York gathered in front of the United Nations building in Manhattan and held a press conference to urge the United Nations to immediately investigate the CCP's secret concentration camp in Sujiatun.

    A spokesperson from the Falun Dafa Information Center gave a speech calling on the international community, United Nations and all organizations and kind-hearted individuals to pay attention to one of the most barbaric regimes in human history. The Chinese Communist regime has built a secret concentration camp at Sujiatun in Shenyang City where at least 6,000 Falun Gong practitioners are locked up. Their internal organs are harvested and sold for profit, and their murdered bodies are cremated to destroy the evidence. The atrocity is too horrible to be expressed with human language. The international community and UN must stand up to stop these atrocities and bring the culprits to justice.

    A practitioner said, "Facing brutal persecution, Falun Gong practitioners defend their belief with their lives and blood. They safeguard humankind dignity and demonstrate the real meaning of life. It is the hope of all mankind and the whole world. The international community must stop this massacre and bring the CCP to justice."

    During the press conference, there were many passers-by who accepted truth-clarification literature and special reports on the Sujiatun Concentration Camp.

    After the press conference, the practitioners delivered information about the Sujiatun Concentration Camp to the office of the Special Rapporteur of the United Nations Commission on Human Rights. They urged UN Human Rights officials to investigate the Sujiatun Concentration Camp and rescue the practitioners imprisoned there.


    Washington DC: Protesting the CCP's Sujiatun Concentration Camp and Calling for Conscience in Front of the White House

    On March 15, 2006, Falun Gong practitioner Guan Guimin played trumpet on Lafayette Square in front of the White House in Washington DC to call people's attention to the crimes at the Sujiatun Concentration Camp. As a famous singer, Mr. Guan said that he wanted to call for conscience and justice and help stop the CCP's brutal persecution.

    Mr. Guan said, "I learned that in a secret concentration camp at Sujiatun in Shenyang City at least 6,000 Falun Gong practitioners are locked up. Their internal organs are harvested and sold for profit, and their murdered bodies are cremated to destroy the evidence. I felt sorrow. When I was a singer in China, I heard that kidneys, hearts and other organs were harvested from death-sentence convicts for transplantation to patients."

    Mr. Guan, continued, "Such a barbaric atrocity is outside of a human being's imagination. It is horrible. It is a shame."

    Hearing about the atrocities at the Sujiatun Concentration Camp, Falun Gong practitioners across the world conducted many protests in various forms to expose the CCP's evil nature and help bring them to an end.

    Though it was cold, Mr. Guan played the trumpet continuously. Many people came forward to inquire and take photos. He said he wanted to call people's attention to the barbarity in Sujiatun, either the US President, local people or tourists.

    Mr. Guan called on the international community to investigate the incident. He believes that more and more kind-hearted people will stand up to expose the CCP's behavior.

    From 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., tourists come and go one after another. The 62-year-old Mr. Guan played again and again the music he composed two year ago, "Please Sit by My Side". While playing the music, his tears ran down.

    "Sit by my side
    Closing your eyes
    Together in silence
    We call for
    The end of torturing
    The end of killing
    The end of the persecution
    Compassion grows in our hearts
    Together in silence
    Our wishes can make a difference"


    Chicago: Practitioners Gather at Chinese Consulate, Protest CCP Death Camp

    At noon on March 15, 2006, Falun Gong practitioners in Chicago held a press conference in front of the Chinese Consulate to expose the CCP's evil deeds in establishing a secret concentration camp for killing practitioners, harvesting human organs for profit, and cremating their remains to destroy the evidence.

    Practitioners gathered in front of the consulate. Some of them drove over an hour from suburban areas to join the protest. The weather changed from warm to cold suddenly. At noon, the temperature was about 25oF though it was sunny. The practitioners did not fear the cold weather but held a banner reading "In Chinese Communist Party's Concentration Camp for Falun Gong, Practitioners are being Killed for Their Organs" in English and Chinese to protest.

    At the press conference, a practitioner read the news in English and Chinese that a CCP insider disclosed that the Chinese Communist regime built a secret concentration camp at Sujiatun in Shenyang City, where at least 6,000 Falun Gong practitioners are locked up. Their internal organs are harvested and sold for profit, and their murdered bodies are cremated to destroy the evidence. Currently, practitioners jailed in the Masanjia Labor Camp and Dabei Prison are being transferred to Sujiatun. Practitioners from the three Northeastern provinces and other regions are being transferred there too.

    A practitioner representative spoke loudly to the consulate across the street, "We hope that consulate officials will tell right and wrong with your conscience. If you like, we can talk at any time and at any location."

    Practitioner Ms. Tianxiao Zhang participated in the conference with her little child and talked about the CCP's persecution of her sister, Zhang Yunhe and Yunhe's husband, Chu Songtao. Yunhe was arrested and no one has known of her whereabouts for more than four years. Songtao was tortured to death. Ms. Zhang called on people to recognize the CCP's evil nature and stand up to help stop the crimes.

    Mr. Xu, who drove for more than an hour to the consulate said, "I cannot calm down for long because of the miserable persecution occurring in China. Last weekend, when we held a protest over the CCP's Sujiatun atrocities, many passers-by who knew the facts expressed their willingness to join us against the CCP's barbarity. Facing the consulate, I'd like to tell the officials and staff to quit the CCP and be free."

    At the end, the practitioners shouted to the consulate together, "Falun Dafa is great!" "Stop the persecution of Falun Gong", "Bring Jiang Zemin, Luo Gan, Zhou Yongkang and Liu Jing to Justice!" Their strong voices showed the practitioners' determination to bring the culprits to justice.



    Kaohsiung, Taiwan: People from All Walks of Life Strongly Condemn the CCP's Atrocities

    At 2:00 p.m. on March 12, 2006, people with a sense of justice held a press conference at the Front Gate of Wufu Middle School in Kaohsiung City, Taiwan, condemning the CCP for building a secret concentration camp in Sujiatun where Falun Gong practitioners have been locked up, tortured and killed and their organs sold for profit. People from all walks of life strongly condemned the CCP's Nazi-style terrorist atrocities.

    The Taiwan Falun Dafa Association informed the media that the CCP has set up a Nazi-style secret concentration camp in Sujiatun, Shenyang City where more than 6,000 Falun Gong practitioners have been locked up. The secret prison has a crematorium and a large number of doctors on site. It is reported that no detainees have ever come out alive. Practitioners' internal organs are harvested for profit and their murdered bodies cremated to destroy the evidence.

    There were many display boards with the words, "SOS, urgent rescue for persecuted Falun Gong practitioners," and huge banners bearing words condemning the CCP's heinous crimes. Many people stopped to watch and felt indignant.

    Doctor Su Suhuan, spokesperson for the South District Group, repeatedly emphasized in her speech that it was difficult to imagine that such atrocities have been committed by a "government." Only an immoral dictatorship could employ such insidious and debased means to persecute a group of people like Falun Gong practitioners who have lofty morals.

    The media interview pediatrician Nie Shuwen

    Pediatrician Nie Shuwen from a famous hospital in a city in China condemned the CCP's inhuman atrocities, which she felt even more outrageous and debased than any of the persecution she had experienced in China's political movements. The CCP seized power through lies, deceptions and massacre. But she had never heard of such an atrocity as selling organs of murdered victims for profit before cremation. This showed the CCP's last-ditch struggle before its disintegration.

    Mr. Zhang Fuzhang, representative of the South District of Grand Alliance for Breaking Away from the CCP, said that from the CCP's recent fanatic atrocities disclosed from Sheyang City's "Sujiatun", the CCP has come close to its end and could collapse at any time. He solemnly called upon the world's people of conscience to step forward together to stop the CCP's barbarous actions.

    Everyone attending the press conference had a heavy heart upon seeing the CCP's brutality. Many people tied a blue ribbon on their arms as a symbol of freedom, human rights and hope. They hoped all Falun Gong practitioners locked up in "Sujiatun" would be soon rescued, and that the wicked CCP would soon disintegrate.


    New Zealand: Hastings Welcomes "Falun Dafa Practitioners Validating the Fa Photo Exhibition"

    On March 8, 2006, "Falun Dafa Practitioners Validating the Fa Photo Exhibition" moved to the bustling streets of Hastings, New Zealand. March 8 was Women's Day, so there were many local women's groups demonstrating their works, accompanied by upbeat music on the other side of the street. But on this side, pictures of Falun Gong practitioners being tortured and murdered gave witness to the facts of how the Chinese Communist Party is torturing Falun Gong practitioners.

    Visitors sign their names to support Falun Gong

    The photos of policemen viciously beating peacefully protesting Falun Gong practitioner on Tiananmen Square surprised the local residents. They said, "Tiananmen Square, I know, that is the place where the Chinese army killed the students. More than a decade has passed, are they still killing people there?" The Falun Gong practitioners clarified the truth to the people about how Falun Gong's peaceful appeals in China resulted in practitioners being arrested. People were so shocked and said, "Oh, my God! Oh, my God!"

    Many people who viewed the photo exhibition signed their names in support of Falun Gong and wrote down their feedback. One young man said, "I will tell my Taiqi master and let him know about it." A woman asked, "Is there an exercise practice site here?" In the message book people wrote, "Hastings welcomes you. Please come here often." "Never give up your pursuit of free expression." "God bless you." "Very moving...."
