(Clearwisdom.net) Zhang Jiyan, 48, is the wife of a Chinese diplomat at the Chinese Embassy in Canada. She is also a Falun Gong practitioner. Since she clarified the truth about Falun Gong to the people around her, the Chinese Embassy has been watching her and tried to take her passport away. In order to avoid the persecution which she would face if she goes back to China, Ms. Zhang Jiyan decided to leave the Chinese Embassy on March 5, 2007.
On March 30, Ms. Zhang Jiyan publicized her announcement of quitting the CCP. The following is her announcement at the press conference on March 30.
My name is Jiyan Zhang and I am the wife of a Chinese diplomat at the Chinese Embassy in Canada. I have recently left the Chinese embassy.
At this event to support 20 million who have quit the Chinese communist party and its affiliated organizations, I not only find it a great pleasure to see so many Chinese people awakening to say ‘no’ to the Chinese Communist party, but I also take pride in myself being one of them and stepping forward today to let out the words that have been hidden in my heart.
In China, half of the population has been subjected to persecution in one way or another in the CCP's political movements. Since the Chinese Communist party came into existence, 80 million Chinese nationals have died because of it. The Chinese Communist party’s depletion of the Chinese people’s spiritual pursuit has been a persecution of the nation’s soul, which is a destruction that has affected everyone. In its place, the party has used its Communist ideology to poison the minds of the Chinese for several generations.
In particular, the persecution of Falun Gong that teaches cultivation of Truth, Compassion, and Tolerance has shattered the morals and conscience of society. To date, more than 3,000 Falun Gong practitioners have been persecuted to death, tens of thousands of them are still being held in the Chinese labour camps and prisons, where they have been subject to cruel torture. Their lives are in great danger, and some of them have had their organs harvested. This exposes the evil nature of the Chinese Communist party and shall not be tolerated in accordance to heavenly principles.
I am here calling for all the fellow Chinese people to say NO to the Chinese Communist party, so that together we can make ourselves free men and women who can hold our rights and the fate of our lives in our own hands. The Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party is the solution to the Communist poison. Let us spread it widely to help more people.
In 1995, I was a family member at the Chinese Embassy in France. The embassy invited the founder of Falun Gong to give a presentation. I was deeply touched by Falun Dafa’s teaching of Truth, Compassion, and Tolerance. I became a practitioner later. Falun Gong spread quickly across China, and as many as 100 million Chinese people were practicing it. However, the Chinese Communist party contradicted its earlier actions of approval by starting to crack down on the practice in 1999 at the orders of Jiang Zemin.
The persecution of Falun Gong is not only systematically and widely happening in China. Just as what has been exposed by Chen Yonglin, a former diplomat at the Chinese consulate in Australia, the Chinese embassies and consulates serve as the base for attacking dissidents, especially those who practice Falun Gong in foreign lands (http://foreignaffairs.house.gov/archives/afhear.htm). At the embassy, I personally saw materials to incite hatred against Falun Gong. The embassy has a special unit dedicated to collecting information, especially on Falun Gong practitioners.
The Chinese Ambassador mentioned at the meetings attended by all embassy personnel that he went to deliver materials defaming Falun Gong to the MP's, Canadian government officials, and the former Governor General.
The embassy has been controlling the Chinese communities to influence mainstream society. For example, in 2005, when NTD (New Tang Dynasty) TV was applying for the permit to CRTC (Canadian Radio and Television Commission) for broadcasting in Canada, they mobilized the pro-communist Chinese groups and mainland Chinese students to write letters to CRTC to stop NTD TV from entering Canada. The opinions therein expressed were all the opinions of the Chinese embassy. Furthermore, they made efforts to lobby Rogers to prevent NTD TV from landing in Canada.
The Chinese Communist party has now disgraced itself with its actions against conscience, and its members have quit or will quit. In 2005, the whole family of a Chinese staff member at the Chinese Embassy in Canada defected (http://en.epochtimes.com/jiuping/newsletter/issue9/#Rally). I am sure that I will not be the last to leave the CCP from the Chinese Embassy.
I hope that the governments and people of all the different countries will see through the falsehood of the Chinese Communist party. Its days are numbered.
A new China without the Chinese Communist Party is on the horizon.
