(Clearwisdom.net) At 6:00 p.m. on April 12, 2002, the Chinese Embassy in Melbourne was going to hold a photo exhibition against Falun Gong. Dafa practitioners came to the Embassy after hearing the news. Some practitioners started to set up at around 4:00 p.m. and decided to hold a commemoration to protest the Jiang regime's persecution of Falun Gong and expose their lies.

The practitioners carefully made a set of wreaths and set them up across the Embassy's front gate. Huge banners in both English and Chinese were set up beside the wreaths. Near one hundred practitioners with light-colored clothes sat on the lawn and sent forth righteous thoughts.

At about 5:00 p.m., a few people who looked like receptionists entered the embassy. Around 6:00 p.m., the gate of the embassy opened and a few staff members stood in front of the door to wait for guests. A few people halted and looked at us for a while before entering. Some people started leaving after less than an hour and almost all of them accepted our truth-clarifying literature.
