(Clearwisdom.net, October 26, 2003) On October 23, 2003, the First National Maliba Hunting Memorial Activity sponsored by the Pingdong County government was held in the Lion Village. President Chen Shui-pian and Vice President Lu Hsiu-lien were invited to attend the opening ceremony. Falun Dafa practitioners from Pingdong and Kaohsiung area unfurled a banner that read, "Pingdong Falun Gong Practitioners Welcome Our Visitors" to welcome the President, Vice President and the guests.

Dafa practitioners also displayed a big poster with the words, "Urgently Rescue Taiwanese Falun Gong Practitioner Lin Hsiao-kai" and explained to government officials and people who attended the ceremony about how Taiwanese Falun Gong practitioner Lin Hsiao-kai was unlawfully detained by the Shanghai national security bureau. Practitioners hoped the officials would try their best to rescue the Taiwanese Falun Gong practitioner. This allowed the Taiwanese people to understand more about the human rights violations in Mainland China. Mr. Lin Hsiao-kai's wife Ms. Chen Shu-ya came to attend the activity and accepted media interviews. Other practitioners clarified the truth in the crowd. Some attendees took pictures, some expressed their encouragement to us, and some wanted to learn more about Falun Gong. The Dafa practitioners' peaceful demeanor left a good impression with the policemen on duty, who also showed their support for us by giving us their thumbs-up.

Ms. Chen Shu-ya petitioned the President for help with a letter. Director of the President's Internal Affairs Office Mr. Tzeng Tian-thyh met with Ms. Chen and other practitioners. Director Tzeng suggested that Ms. Chen should also seek support from International non-governmental human rights organizations and work together to rescue Lin Hsiao-kai.
