(Minghui.org) New evidence reveals that Jiang Zemin, the former head of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), ordered organ harvesting from Falun Gong practitioners. A former Minister of Health for the Chinese People’s Liberation Army (PLA) General Logistics Department discussed an order from Jiang to start organ harvesting in a September 2014 undercover investigative call.
The following is the audio recording of the investigator's phone conversation with Bai Shuzhong (白书忠):
Bai said in a telephone investigation, “Back then it was Premier Jiang … there was an order, a sort of instruction, that said to carry out such things, organ transplantation. … Because back then after Premier Jiang issued the order, we all did a lot of anti-Falun Gong work …” “….that is to say, it was not just the military who was doing kidney transplants ….”
Bai Shuzhong (former Minister of Health for the Chinese People’s Liberation Army General Logistics Department): Hello?
Investigator: Hello, is this Bai Shuzhong, former Minister of the PLA General Logistics Department Minister of Health?
Bai Shuzhong: Ah, who are you?
Investigator: …, we would like to ask you for some information,
Bai Shuzhong: You are... Whenever, about what? you (can) talk.
Investigator: Here is the situation, when you were the Minister of Health for the PLA General Logistics Department, regarding taking organs from captive Falun Gong people for transplantation, was it an order from Wang Ke, then director of the PLA General Logistics Department? Or did it directly come from the Central Military Commission?
Bai Shuzhong: Back then, it was Premier Jiang...
Yes, there was an order, a sort of instruction, that said to start carrying out this thing, that is organ transplantation
Later, Premier Jiang, (I) heard there was an instruction paper, about people selling kidneys for transplant surgeries, this, I should say, it was not just the military who was doing the kidney transplants.
Investigator: We also obtained some intelligence, that is to say back then, the Joint Logistics Departments (of the Military Regions) had detained a number of Falun Gong people as live donors, is that true?
Bai Shuzhong: This, this is back then, ah, I think, at least this is how I remembered, because back then after Premier Jiang issued the order, we all did a lot of anti-Falun Gong work.
Investigator: You (the PLA General Logistics Department) and the Joint Logistics Department No. 1, Joint Logistics Department No. 2, including the Joint Logistics Department No.40 subdivision, and the military hospitals they were in charge of, do you have supervisory relationship with them?
Bai Shuzhong: We directly control the military medical universities, they are directly affiliated with the PLA General Logistics Department, and they received repeated orders, because Jiang paid a lot attention to this matter back then, put a lot of emphasis on this matter,
Investigator: Who put a lot of emphasis on this matter?
Bai Shuzhong: Jiang, it was when Jiang was in power... Paid a lot of attention to this matter, there was a written order,
Investigator: From 1998 to 2004, you were ….
Bai Shuzhong: Right right right, the Minister of Health for the PLA General Logistics Department, from 1998 to 2004.
Investigator: Well, we will end here.
Bai Shuzhong: OK, OK, good, good, in the future, if something comes up, you can ask me, no problem.
Investigator: OK, good. thanks, bye.
Bai Shuzhong: Bye
This corroborates a telephone recording released in August 2013, in which Bo Xilai, while visiting Germany as Chinese Minister of Commerce in 2006, admitted that Jiang gave the order to initiate live organ harvesting. The following is the audio recording:
Jiang Zemin, former head of the CCP, launched a genocidal persecution of Falun Gong practitioners in July 1999, with the policy, “Ruin their [Falun Gong practitioner's] reputations, bankrupt them financially, and destroy them physically.”
Under this policy, organ harvesting from living Falun Gong practitioners became a lucrative way to “destroy them physically”. The CCP utilized military power and facilities, as well legal and medical systems, to imprison Falun Gong practitioners, establish a large organ bank, and systematically distribute and harvested organs, and destroy evidence.
Since the appalling crime was exposed in March 2006, an increasing amount of evidence, including witnesses' testimonies, independent investigations, and audio recordings of conversations between investigators and Chinese organ transplant doctors and Chinese officials, continues to prove the existence of a militarized organ harvesting industry in China.
