By a Practitioner in Switzerland

(Clearwisdom.net) Falun Dafa practitioners and victims of the persecution in China, Yuzhi Wang from Canada and Jane Dai from Australia appealed to stop the cruel persecution of Falun Dafa practitioners in China during the 59th session of the United Nations Commission on Human Rights in Switzerland.

They revealed the facts about the persecution and the truth about Falun Gong to the local media during their short stay in Geneva, Zurich and Bern. They have been interviewed by the Society for Threatened Peoples, Luzern TV and the Kreuzlinger Nachrichte newspaper.

The interview with the Society for Threatened Peoples lasted about two hours. Yuzhi Wang and Jane Dai told the interviewers about their plight in the persecution that still has been going on. Before they left, the reporters told the practitioners, "Thank you for your courage."

On our way to the meeting with the Society for Threatened Peoples, we were contacted by a reporter from Luzern TV, who said that he wanted to interview Ms. Dai and Ms. Wang. He said that he wanted to produce a video in Luzern on the evening of March 27th 2003. During the interview, the Luzern TV reporter chose a wooden bridge which is more than 700 years old, the most famous historic site in Luzern, as the interview backdrop. After the interview, he expressed his blessing to us.

On the morning of March 28th 2003, we met a reporter from the Kreuzlinger Nachrichten newspaper in the Hotel Z¨ırichberg. He previously reported on the peaceful appeal and hunger strike of 4 Swiss Falun Gong practitioners in Hong Kong and has a good understanding of Falun Gong. "I feel really different this time after meeting the victims face to face," he said after the interview. He suggested that we contact the media more actively and agreed that exposing the evil persecution is a good way to stop it.

During these two days, the media realized that ordinary people in China are suffering from this evil persecution, either directly or indirectly. People are separated from the truth of the persecution by an almost impenetrable iron curtain. If we do not step forward to validate the Fa, who else can and will? Freedom of our family members, friends, millions of Falun Gong practitioners and the Chinese people can only be secured by exposing this evil persecution.
