U.K. Practitioner Fan Yanyu's Hunger Strike Statement:

Jiang's regime has recently ordered the killing of Falun Gong practitioners. This wanton brutality is a crime against all the good people in the world. I hope to use my actions to awaken thousands of sleeping hearts indifferent to this evil persecution. I appeal to all government and non-government organizations attending the UN Human Rights Commission in Geneva to help immediately stop Jiang's bloody persecution.

Latest News From China

Today, 147 people published solemn announcements declaring that all that they have written, said and done under the evil's forced brainwashing and high-pressure persecution that doesn't conform to Dafa is completely void. From now on, they will dedicate their lives to making up for the loss they caused to Dafa, clarifying the truth to people and catching up with Teacher's Fa rectification process.

Dafa practitioner Qi Changping went to Beijing twice to appeal, and she was detained and fined. After she was transferred to the township government to be detained, Qi thought that she shouldn't cooperate with the evil. After she sent forth righteous thoughts, she was released in only three days. In October 2000, she was sentenced to one year of forced labor, and several days later she enlightened along an evil path. Through Fa study, she realized that she had done wrong, and she deeply regretted her mistakes. She published a solemn announcement and stepped up her efforts to make up for the loss that she caused to Dafa.

Falun Dafa Overseas

On March 16, Dafa practitioners in Vancouver BC, Canada went to the local Chinese Consulate. They strongly protested against Jiang's shoot to kill order against Dafa practitioners in China by going on hunger strike as a group while sitting in front of the consulate building. They also called for help from more kindhearted people to stop the persecution. More practitioners are joining the group hunger strike.

On March 18, Dafa practitioners in Japan held a press conference in front of the Chinese Consulate in Osaka, calling for a stop of the shoot to kill order by Jiang's regime against Dafa practitioners.

Chinese Foreign Minister Tang Jiaxuan visited Australia on March 17. From the airport to the hotel where he stayed, Tang could see banners that read and shouts that cried "Falun Dafa is good" all along his route.

Open Discussion

I was amazed by the April 25 peaceful appeal. Why do people practicing meditation get arrested? Out of curiosity, I borrowed the book Zhuan Falun. There were always stories about Falun Gong in the newspaper. Why does Jiang's regime always violently suppress Falun Gong? In 2001, I read all of Zhuan Falun within three days. I cannot describe with words how much I benefitted physically and mentally from practicing Falun Gong after only three months.

Story of Cultivation

I used to be in very poor health. I had taken all kinds of medicine but did not seem to improve. In 1995, I obtained the Fa. Within several days, my body felt very light and strong, and I became very healthy. My grandson had suffered from asthma since he was five years old. He was hospitalized three times but it did not help. Later I showed him how to practice Falun Gong. Within three days, he became very healthy and active. Many of my family members started practicing Falun Gong after that.
