(Voice of America, April 12, Germany) Jiang arrived at Dresden on April 11. Among the welcoming crowd, previously organized by the Chinese Embassy, a woman shouted, "Falun Dafa is good!" Some Chinese security guards immediately rushed out to stifle her by grabbing her by the neck. Passersby commented that such a reaction was outrageous, and how difficult it is to understand the severity of such actions against protesters.

(Wolfsburger Nachrichten, April 6) Jiang will visit Wolfsburg on April 12. Falun Gong practitioners will also hold a demonstration on the same day, hoping to bring people's attention to the brutal persecution against Falun Gong in China. A city staff member said that the city would be at a "state of alert" because the Falun Gong practitioners had already announced their intention to demonstrate on that day. The International Association for Human Rights also called on citizens to wear a golden color, representing those victims persecuted to death by the Jiang regime.

(Radio Free Asia, April 5) Amnesty International and the International Association for Human Rights jointly hosted a discussion seminar in Geneva about State Terrorism. Zhao Ming, from Ireland, related his own experience of being beaten, brainwashed, deprived of sleep and other tortures administered by five policemen with six electric batons during his detention in China. He also called attention to those people who are still being persecuted under the rule of state sponsored terrorism.

(Newswire, Germany, April 9) During Jiang's visit to Germany, Amnesty International asked Chancellor Schroeder to openly criticize China's human rights record, citing over two hundred Falun Gong practitioners who have died in 2001 of injuries directly resulting from the persecution. Green Party (member of Germany's ruling coalition) chairperson Ms. Claudia Roth said that the "dramatic problems in China" must be discussed again and again, and need to be addressed as major topics during Jiang Zemin's visit.

How Much Is the National Debt Averaged Down to You? Chinese Premier Zhu Rongji gave two different GDP percentages in his answers to the reporter on March 15, and in his "Annual Government Report": 18% and 26.7%, respectively. The difference is about 9%, a figure that exceeds the annual rate of GDP growth. One the two figures must be wrong. As the Premier of a great country, he published this conflicting data and then even misquoted the data to argue that the national debt level was tolerable. That is blatant deception. How could such a government first foster and persuade people to uphold moral values and the rule of law in a country that is already so full of lies?

I used to exhaust all means to stop my wife from practicing Falun Gong and studying the Fa. After beating and cursing failed to work, I threatened her with divorce, which still failed to move her even a little bit. During the time we were separated, I started to think rationally. I watched the truth-clarification disc on the "self-immolation" and Teacher Li's Fa lecture videotapes, and I felt "Truth, Compassion, Forbearance" taking root in my heart.

1. After July 20, 1999, my sister was deluded by lies and often argued with my mother. Later, she was laid-off. At the time, I lived in the streets to clarify the truth to people. One day, my sister asked someone to deliver to me 260 Yuan, the hard-earned money she made by working long days at a restaurant. She said to my mother, "I support her!"

2. A practitioner's spouse is not a practitioner but sometimes helped with Fa rectification. One day this person had a dream that when clarifying truth to people, words flew from this person's mouth, "Falun Dafa is really good, no one can destroy it; if you want to ask the reason, it's because Falun Dafa has the support of the people."

3. A middle school student in Northeast China answered a question on an exam that slanders Teacher Li in this way, "According to what I know, Teacher Li Hongzhi never said this sentence at all; as for who said this, I don't know, so I can't judge whether it is right or wrong." The political science teacher gave the student a perfect score.

4. Jiang's criminal group persecutes the good, and this has resulted in abnormal climates in Beijing and endless disasters. Temperatures have soared, and Beijing was attacked by continuous, violent sandstorms. "Good is rewarded with good and evil is met with evil" is a heavenly principle. All kind-hearted Chinese people, please wake up!

The four Swedish practitioners started their work as soon as they arrived in Hong Kong: writing statements of why they are conducting a hunger strike, preparing sashes, sending forth righteous thoughts in front of the China Liaison Office, clarifying the truth to tourists from China at the mid-level observation deck, clarifying the truth during the night at the mountain top even when they were on hunger strike. After they were released, they continued their hunger strike in the appeals area of the China Liaison Office, spoke to the media, clarified the truth and wrote articles.

The Chinese dictators' "logic" as seen from the interview given by the family of Wang Bo at CCTV's Focus program. Wang Bo's entire family benefited from practicing Falun Dafa. After July 20, 1999, the three of them were kidnapped into forced labor camp and brainwashing classes, and suffered physical and mental abuses. As a result of the forced brainwashing, they were used to slander Falun Dafa and made to lie to the world, denying all the benefits they had derived from Falun Dafa. How can one believe what the Jiang's regime said about the family members finding happiness in the forced labor camp, while they were just forcibly separated?

The program cannot deny the fact that the Wang's benefited from Falun Dafa in the past. Wang Xinzhong and Liu Shuqin wrote about how they had benefited from Falun Dafa and the persecution they were subjected to. After they were kidnapped and put through forced labor and brainwashing, they blatantly lied on TV. They had made it very clear how Falun Dafa had changed the whole family for the better when they were free to say anything they wanted and under no threat. We are their witnesses.

I spent a sleepless night with Wang Bo at the Xin'an Labor Camp in Beijing the last time I saw her. They made her put on the prison uniform. Every time they put it on her, she took it off until late in the evening. Yelling, swearing and other sounds were heard. Ten to fifteen minutes later, she was wearing it and didn't take it off. I realized that her willpower was wavering and she was being worn down mentally.

Today 86 practitioners made solemn declarations that what they have said and done that are not consistent with Dafa standards under the vicious force's brainwashing and the high-pressure persecution are null and void. From now on they with make up the losses they caused by redoubling their efforts in clarifying the truth about Falun Gong to people and following Teacher in the Fa-Rectification process.

The 13^th Chemical Company Ltd in Hegang City suspended 10 Falun Gong practitioners and deducted their salaries. On March 17 the Public Security Bureau Nanshan Branch Office illegally detained 2 practitioners for 15 days. In the past two years nearly 300 practitioners were illegally detained, over 50 were sent for labor education and at least 5 practitioners were tortured to death.

In Memory of Fellow Practitioner Zhang Chuansheng: Zhang Chuansheng got married in his 50's, and his daughter is not even 4 years old. He always carried good intentions toward others and did not compete for personal benefit even before practicing Dafa. He showed little interest in fame and fortune. After practicing Falun Dafa he followed the standards of practitioners more strictly. After July 20, 1999 he practiced at home and quietly carried out Fa-Rectification activities by clarifying the truth to people and offering them salvation. He was persecuted to death only 4 days after being arrested by the public security bureau.

The Cultivation Story of Sixteen Members of My Family (Part 4): My younger brother suffered from serious anaphylactic skin disease since childhood. It was extremely itchy and ran with pus. Although we spent much money and effort, it was never completely cured. Since my brother and my sister-in-law obtained Dafa they have practiced diligently. In July 2000 when our great Teacher appeared at the Washington, D.C Fa Conference, my brother cried through the conference. Since then the areas with disease all have new skin as tender as a baby's skin.

The Truth from the Heart of a Beginner: Since my childhood I had deep in my heart the question about life and the fear of death. In 1999 I followed my husband to practice Falun Gong and read Zhuan Falun. On page 77 the statement about Yuanshen answered the question I had since childhood. The purpose of life is to return to one's true self! After that I was no longer afraid of death, because I have found the way to transcend life and death, which is cultivation, the cultivation of Falun Dafa!
