Mr. Xia Geng
Acting Mayor of Qingdao City
Xiang Gang Zhong Road
Qingdao Municipal Government, Qingdao, P.R. China,

Dear Mr. Geng:
I am a Councilor with the City of Vancouver, Canada, elected by the people of Vancouver and working to serve their needs. I have heard a tragic story from a resident of Vancouver, Ms. Tianxiao Zhang. I am informed that she lost her brother-in-law, and then her mother, due to the persecution of Falun Gong in China. I am also informed that her brother-in-law, Songtao Zou, was tortured to death in the Wangoun Labor Camp of Zibo City, Shandong Province. He died suddenly in police custody at the age of 28 years. His body was forced to be cremated hastily at Zibo City. Songtao was transferred suddenly to this labor camp in September 2000 with his family, un-notified of the reason. After Songtao's family members returned to Qingdao City from Zibo, the were even ordered not to weep or cry at home since, as police said, their neighbors would know of Songtao's death. Even though Songtao had a Master's Degree in Marine Biology, he was deemed unemployable due to his unwillingness to give up his belief in Truthfulness, Compassion and Tolerance; the major principles of Falun Gong. Tianxiao's mother passed away in sorrow in 2001, struck by the death of Songtao and the homelessness of her young daughter, Yunhe Zhang. Further, her sister Yunhe Zhang is believed to have been held secretly at the Dashan Labor Camp located at Sifang District of Qingdao City for at least a few months since the beginning of 2002.

We are writing to you on behalf of Mr. Zion Xiong, the Israeli citizen whose sister was arrested in China a year ago because of her association with the "Falun Gong" organization. We would like to verify what is known to us about the persecution going on in China against the members of the group, and ask you to try to help the Xiong family to contact the sister.
