Borough of Forest Hills A Proclamation Supporting the Falun
Gong
Whereas, Falun Dafa, also known as Falun Gong, is a
world wide recognized body, mind and spiritual practice that offers great
health benefits and principles which promotes contributing to society; and
Whereas, during the past three years, practitioners of
Falun Gong in China have been labeled cultists, persecuted, arrested, beaten
and treated inhumanely; and
Whereas, the Chinese government's actions against Falun
Gong practitioners represent a severe example of the crushing of human rights
and civil liberties; and
Whereas, the United States State Department condemned
the action of the Chinese Government and asked China to respect freedom of
thought, conscience, and religion and allow all persons to practice their
religious beliefs freely.
Now Therefore Be It Resolved that the Borough Council
of the Borough of Forest Hills condemns the violence and repression against
Falun Gong practitioners in China.
In witness
whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and cause the seal of the Borough of
Forest Hills this 22nd day of January, 2003.
