Hong Kong Falun Gong practitioners Hold Candlelight Vigil to Oppose Article 23 (Photos)
(Clearwisdom.net) On the eve of the parade against Article 23 on July 1st, Hong
Kong Falun Gong practitioners held a candlelight vigil to express their opposition to the Article 23
legislation. About two hundred and fifty Falun Gong practitioners gathered at Standard Garden after 5 pm and
sat quietly. The appeal ended at 10:30 p.m. Falun Gong practitioner Ms. Huang said that the
practitioners came here to express their opposition to Article 23 legislation. They wanted the Hong
Kong government to stop the legislation. Ms. Huang said her colleagues and friends plan to join the
parade. Someone called on the Hong Kong people to follow a dress code to express their opinions. Wearing
black shirt represents "against Article 23", while wearing black pants and skirts
represents "against Tung". The Hong Kong Falun Gong practitioners decided to wear their
regular yellow suits. They will not chant slogans, only peacefully protest. |
