(Minghui.org) Japan hosted the Quad Summit – at which the leaders of Japan, the United States, Australia and India met in Tokyo – on May 22-24, 2022. During that time, Falun Dafa practitioners in Tokyo held truth-clarifying events outside the conference hall to expose the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) systematic persecution of Falun Dafa. They exposed the criminal acts that the CCP has committed against Falun Dafa practitioners, including illegal imprisonment and forced organ harvesting from living practitioners.
Through these events, the practitioners hope to raise further awareness on the part of world leaders about the persecution going on in China. They also want to help make citizens aware of the atrocities committed by the CCP. They truly hope to end this persecution and stop the CCP’s violation of human rights, which has been ongoing for the past 23 years.
The practitioners put up banners outside the conference hall worded, “The Heavens Annihilate the CCP” and “End the Persecution.” They also displayed pictures of practitioners who were brutally tortured by the CCP and distributed truth-clarifying materials along the pedestrian walkway. They talked to people who came over to find out more, sharing about the goodness of Falun Dafa and exposing the cruel persecution in China.

After listening to a practitioner talk about the persecution, Mr. Kanemoto said, “The CCP is really a frightening regime. Harvesting the organs from a living person and selling them for economic profit, who is the person with a vested interest like that?” When the practitioner answered “the CCP,” Mr. Kanemoto said, “Although I can’t do much, I am willing to add my signature to support you guys.”

Ms. Yoshino, who came to Tokyo from Kyoto to partake in a tour, listened to a practitioner’s explanation. She said that selling organs is something that is definitely not allowed. She could not imagine harvesting organs from a living person. “I only hope that this matter can be ended sooner rather than later. I hope that the problem can be resolved soon.”

Mr. Sato came to participate in the Falun Dafa activity, adding his voice to protest the CCP’s atrocities. When he heard the facts about Falun Dafa practitioners being persecuted by the CCP, he said, “I know. I have been paying attention to the human rights issues in China. I also know about the organ harvesting from living practitioners matter.”
After hearing a practitioner’s describing the situation in China, Mr. Kawamura said, “I have heard about this issue – the persecution of Falun Dafa practitioners – before. I saw your event on August 15, 2020 calling for signatures for your petition. I will read it, and gain more understanding about this.”

Mr. Takada said, “I understand Falun Dafa very well. The first time I heard about Falun Dafa was on August 15, 2020. I was on my way to the shrine when I saw you all distributing the truth-clarifying materials. I also heard about the organ harvesting from living practitioners many times. I think that if we let the CCP do as it pleases, it is equivalent to being their accomplice. If the persecution is not ended soon, the Falun Dafa practitioners’ situation today will be that of the Japanese people tomorrow.”
