Practitioners Rally in the Penghu Islands to Support Bringing Jiang to Justice

(Clearwisdom.net)

According to a Central News Agency report, Falun Gong groups in Taiwan organized a rally of one thousand people in the Penghu Islands to support the lawsuit against Jiang. About five hundred practitioners from the southern counties of Taiwan joined local groups in Penghu to collect signatures and rally for support beginning on the evening of September 17. Many local people came to the rally to sign the petition, including the chief commissioner of the local Democratic Progress Party.

Falun Gong was introduced to the Chinese people in 1992. With the number of practitioners increasing rapidly, the Chinese Communist authorities started to interfere with the peaceful group. Due to suppression and a ban ordered by CCP head Jiang, Falun Gong lost its freedom to practice in China.

Practitioners around the world have organized many activities focused on "Bringing Jiang to Justice." Practitioners from southern counties in Taiwan crossed the strait to participate in the one--thousand-strong group practice and local activities to support the global "Bring Jiang to Justice" efforts. Activities included a parade and the collection of signatures supporting an end to the persecution of Falun Gong in China.

A written statement was issued to condemn the suppression and the persecution conducted by Jiang and his high-ranking official accomplices. The activity attracted many local residents and travelers to stop and sign, expressing support at a fundamental level.

The activity to support "Bring Jiang to Justice All Over the World" continued into the next day. One thousand practitioners started group practice in the county plaza at 4:45am. At 2pm, a parade of floats, laden with flowers, passed through downtown Magong City. A "mind and spirit" workshop was held at Fishman Pier starting at 7pm, and a second collection of signatures in support of justice was obtained.
