The local Falun Dafa Association was invited to participate in a health activity at Gîtes du Domaine de Carlan, a vacation rental home, in Les Abymes on the island of Grande-Terre. Locals were interested in Falun Dafa. Some had previously learned the exercises while others had heard about Falun Dafa during various activities. Almost everyone who tried the exercises said they felt a positive energy when they did them.
Although people said they were not surprised by the lack of freedom of speech in China, they were shocked by the brutal actions of the CCP. They considered it to be “unacceptable to harvest the organs of Falun Dafa practitioners and ethnic minorities while they are alive.”
