(Clearwisdom.net) A practitioner in Hubei Province had been doing his job exceptionally well since he began practicing Falun Dafa. His bosses and colleagues highly praised his work. In 1999, when the company was just about to promote him, Jiang initiated the persecution against Falun Gong. As a result, he was illegally detained for several months and lost the opportunity for a promotion.
As practitioners clarified the truth about Falun Gong to people, the environment improved greatly. This practitioner had continued to act according to the requirements for a practitioner, so people in his workplace gradually came to understand the truth.
In 2003, the company formally promoted the practitioner because of his honest and upright conduct and his capability in the business. When his boss interviewed him, the practitioner asked if the company was concerned that his promotion would bring trouble for the company because he was a Falun Gong practitioner. The boss replied, "Nowadays, people who are obsessed with drinking, gambling and whoring can all be promoted and become leaders. Why shouldn't a good person like you be promoted?"
One of his colleagues in the company had been looking forward to this same position for a long time. When he found that he hadn't been promoted to the position, he wrote a letter to the mayor complaining that the company shouldn't have promoted a Falun Gong practitioner. The official in the mayor's office signed the complaint letter and returned it to the company, who then gave the letter to the practitioner. As it turned out, the company had obtained permission from high-level officials before they had promoted him.
