Truth and People's Heart

Tu Guiming, the security chief from Zhaopu Village, Jiedong County, Guangdong Province persecuted and harassed Dafa practitioners in the village. He forced the practitioners to sign documents on "sensitive days" and he ransacked the practitioners' homes with a group of vicious police officers. On January 21, 2003 [Chinese lunar calendar], he died from sudden illness at the age of 47.

Yang Junwei, the deputy Party secretary from the Lanzhou City Bus Co. in Gansu Province participated in the persecution and brainwashing of Dafa practitioners. He was hit by a car and almost died from the accident.

Truth About Persecution

After their detention term expired on March 25, 2003 in the Wangcun Labor Camp, Dafa practitioners Li Meixiang, Cui Aichen, Zhang Yonglan, Yu Kerong from Zhaoyuan City, Shandong Province were picked up by thugs from Zhaoyuan City "610 Office" and were directly sent to the Linglong Town "610 Office" brainwashing class to be further persecuted. Each practitioner was extorted varying amounts of money between 1,000 Yuan and 2,000 Yuan. Dafa practitioners Li Yufeng and Fang Shuxiang were also illegally detained at the same brainwashing class.

Crimes committed by thugs from the "610 Office" and vicious police from the Dalianhe Gas Manufactory of Harbin City Gas Company: they illegally sent persevering Dafa practitioners to the Yilan Brainwashing Class or the Yilan No. 2 Detention Center; they made up files against Dafa practitioners, to have all practitioners who went to Beijing illegally sent to labor camps; they illegally withhold the practitioners' paycheck and stop Dafa practitioners' work, and other abuses.

News from Abroad

Dafa practitioners in Japan wrote a letter to Japanese ambassador in China in which they request him to help rescue Kaneko Yoko: In the past month alone, more than 40 Falun Gong practitioners in China died from torture. Kaneko Yoko's life is constantly at risk and we are very concerned about her situation. The past successful rescue efforts in Canada, Ireland and Australia show that the support and help from foreign ambassadors, governments and people of conscience in society is precious. We sincerely hope you can do your best to help Kaneko Yoko to walk out of the labor camp in China and return to her family in Japan.

News from China

Dafa practitioner Li clarified the truth to his aunt who immediately wanted to learn Dafa. She studied the Fa everyday and told everyone she met that Falun Dafa is good. Once, she picked up a bag of truth clarification flyers and posted them all over several residential buildings. She knew a girl who worked at a clothes shop and told her to remember, "Falun Dafa is good." Once, an electrical accident took place in the shop and three people were stricken to the ground. The girl remembered what the aunt told her and recited silently, "Falun Dafa is good." She was not harmed.

Reference Materials

The Chinese ruling Party caused great damage by hiding the truth about SARS. On March 28, the World Health Organization pinpointed China as the global center from which the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome had spread. China has caused severe damage to global health through concealing the truth about SARS. The Chinese government not only concealed the situation on the illness, it lists the disease as a "national secret" and hinders the WHO from investigating the cause. It continues to mislead the people and claims SARS is under control in China. In fact, epidemics often broke out in China but were concealed by the government. This time, the ruling Party did the same but the pneumonia has spread to other countries. The Chinese ruling Party was forced to give out some information under pressure from the international community. Through its information blockade and hiding the true situation about the spread of SARS, the Party commits a crime by depriving people of their right to knowledge and it devalues people's lives. It is very urgent to break through the Party's information blockade. Chinese people around the world should work together to break through the Party's blockade and monopoly of information to let more people learn about the truth and reduce the loss.
