Tony Vlatko, Green Party candidate for the Australian Parliament has always been interested in cultivation. He has practiced Tai Chi and now is practicing one kind of qigong. Falun Gong practitioners introduced Falun Gong to him and told him that this is a high level cultivation of body and mind. He expressed interest and said he must try it. When practitioners told him that thousands of Falun Gong practitioners in China were being detained, beaten, and tortured just for their belief in "Truthfulness-Benevolence-Forbearance," he was shocked and immediately said that he would write to the Australian government and other concerned parties. He also invited practitioners to go with him to a local radio station the next day and introduce Falun Dafa to the audience.

It was not until the next day when the practitioners got to the radio station that they found out that Mr. Vlatko himself was a guest who had been invited by the radio station. Mr. Vlatko invited practitioners to join him, which reduced his own talk time. It was right before the election and any radio time in which he could have communicated with voters would have been extremely important to him as a candidate. Moreover, he intentionally brought up the topic of health to give a chance for practitioners to introduce Falun Gong to the audience. Quickly, practitioners received inquiring calls from the audience.

We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to Mr. Tony Vlatko for his sincerity and selflessness.
