Latest News from China
Today, 199 people published solemn declarations, reversing what they said and
did that didn't conform to Dafa while under intense brainwashing, persecution
and pressure. They declare all their improper words and actions to be completely
void. From now on, they will firmly believe in Teacher and Dafa, and steadfastly
keep up with Fa-rectification. They will clarify the truth thoroughly, eliminate
the evil with righteous thoughts, offer people salvation and redouble their
efforts to make up for the losses they have brought to Dafa.
The "610" Office in Liaoyang City (Liaoning Province) and the
Political and Judiciary Committee of Hongwei District hired 30 armed policemen
and plainclothes policemen in their effort to arrest Dafa practitioners. The
perpetrators also used people who used to practice, but have enlightened along
evil paths to persecute Dafa practitioners in brainwashing classes. These former
practitioners include Huang Zhuxiu, Zhang Haiyan and Ling Xiuhua. Practitioner
Dong Yanmei (female) was not allowed to sleep for four days and three nights,
leaving her four-year-old boy at home by himself. A list of criminals is also
provided.
Police from Aimin Police Division in Mudanjiang City (Heilongjiang Province)
have recently escalated their persecution against Dafa practitioners. So far 10
practitioners have been arrested. The persecutors beat the practitioners,
tortured them with devices such as the "iron chair" and the
"tiger bench," tied them up in painful ways and denied them sleep. The
police are trying to arrest more practitioners through the address books they
confiscated from the arrested practitioners. We hope that other practitioners in
the area will be careful and eliminate the evil with righteous thoughts.
Some facts about the persecution received by a student from a Chinese
traditional medicine college. The student was forced to quit school for
cultivating Dafa. In Tiananmen Square the student was arrested and beaten for
unfurling a banner and upholding Dafa.
"Good Meets with Good and Evil with Evil" is a Heavenly Principle -
Only the Virtuous Can Expect a Bright Future
Fearing official sanction, a villager named Wang from Liangzhong County,
Shenyang City, Liaoning Province, used to hamper his wife in her practice of
Falun Gong. Not long after, he suddenly fell ill. Weeping bitterly, he said,
"I wouldn't have got this disease if I practiced Falun Gong." He began
to practice and after a month he was cured.
At Shijiazhuang Forced Labor Camp in Hebei Province, practitioners were hit
with electric batons, had their hands cuffed and were hung up with rope, were
brutally beaten and had to suffer other inhuman treatments. Now, six of the
lawless thugs who participated in these atrocities have received punishment:
Camp Director Wu Yuliang, Camp Politics Head Wang Bingfang, Disciplinary
Inspection Section Chief Zhao Kai, Chief Qin Fengchun of Division 5, Han Dui of
Division 1 and several others were arrested and imprisoned. Chief Li Yong of
Division 1 was removed from office.
Corrupt government officials in Xinganmeng, Inner Mongolia, slandered the
founder of Falun Gong and persecuted practitioners. Natural disasters followed
as a warning sign for the people. After a rare blizzard attacked Keyouzhong Qi
in Xinganmeng, Inner Mongolia, in the winter of 2001, on the 19th of
December 2001, the media reported that another snowstorm hit Jalait Qi in
Xinganmeng.
Officials from the Forced Labor Camp Hospital in Gansu Province tortured
57-year-old Dafa practitioner Wang Guifu to death. This act brought disasters
upon the local people. A construction accident took place in Tianshui City,
Gansu Province, resulting in five deaths and many injuries. A fire broke out on
"Audio-Video" Street in Qinan, Gansu.
Falun Dafa Overseas
A newspaper in Japan reported on January 14: Falun Gong members held a parade
on January 13 in Nagoya, calling for the Chinese government to stop the
persecution. So far there have been parades in five cities in Japan, including
Tokyo and Osaka.
Cultivation Stories
Three examples of the effects of righteous thoughts:
The following is the story of a government official in Shandong Province who
has been insisting on practicing Falun Gong. In the past two years, he has been
subjected to various tortures and has been arrested twice. He was released on
medical parole when the police saw he was in critical condition. Now he is
wandering around, forced into a life of homelessness to avoid further inhumane
persecution. However, he never stops practicing Falun Gong.
More and more people with predestined relationships come to learn Falun Dafa.
A Japanese gentleman over 50-years-old had been looking for answers to his
questions about life. It turned out that he met two Dafa practitioners when he
was learning Chinese in Hong Kong. One day when one of the practitioners
explained Dafa to him, he said, "This is the best class I have ever had.
This is the most important thing in my life. I must read Zhuan Falun!"
The cultivation story of a Taiwanese musician: in March 1997 when I was
studying in Rome, a person from Mainland China introduced Dafa to me and I
started to practice Dafa shortly afterwards. Ever since the persecution started
on July 20th, 1999, I have never doubted Dafa and Teacher. No matter
when and where, I always believe that Teacher has the best arrangement.
