detained at the Political Section of the Military District for over a year. The
perpetrators moved them to Zizhong City's Nanmusi Female Labor Camp for further
persecution. Practitioner Zhao Wenjie held a hunger strike from late April to
early June to protest the persecution, so she was very weak. During a physical
examination she was found to be in very poor health, and the Nanmusi Female

Experience-Sharing Conference Around July 20, 2003 Around July 20, 2003, Dafa practitioners from a certain place in China
successfully held an experience-sharing conference. In the past four years, no
matter how perilous the situation was, Dafa practitioners have persevered
sturdily in validating Dafa, clarifying the facts and saving sentient being;
their belief in Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance has never altered a bit.
During the two-day conference, they studied Teacher's recent lectures and Zhuan
Falun, and shared experiences. Practitioners had in-depth sharing on
righteous thoughts and righteous actions (from the perspectives of security,
righteous thoughts and spending money), finding one's attachments, getting rid
of one's loopholes, and cooperating as one body, and gained a clearer
understanding on the Fa. The conference was filled with compassion and serenity.
Some were moved to tears when hearing others' experience sharing. Gaps amongst
practitioners disappeared in this righteous field. Practitioners achieved better
coordination on specific Fa-rectification work. The conference was a great
success. 10. [Daqing City, Heilongjiang Province] Dafa Practitioners Zhang Zhong, Zhu

to give up her belief. Her term expired on July 18, 2003; however, the personnel
at the forced labor camp refused to release her, saying that they won't release
her until she is "transformed." Fu weighed 120 Jin (approximately 132

Ms. Song Yuanya into Guiyang City's Lannigou Brainwashing Center Ms. Song Yuanya, 34 years old, deals with disposing of water in the Guizhou
Hotel. In May 2002, her unit forced her to write the so-called "guarantee
statement**or she would be sent to a brainwashing center. So she had to give up
her work and leave home to avoid persecution. In May 2003 after a colleague learned where she lived, this colleague was
deceived by their unit and brought some personnel to find her. They forcibly
took her to Guiyang City's Lannigou (in Jinzhu Town) Brainwashing Center. But
soon after she arrived there, Song went on a hunger strike. Her current
situation is unknown. Phone number of Song Yuanya's work unit: switchboard: 86-851-6822888,

Huang Gejian and Yang Mingjiu, who are Persecuting Dafa Practitioners Huang Kejian and Yang Mingjiu trampled the freedom of belief and human rights
of Dafa practitioners. Due to their despicable persecution against firm Dafa
practitioners, one practitioner has been sent to a forced labor camp; several
have been illegally detained. They also tightly monitor Dafa practitioners and
search practitioners' houses at will. They send firmly committed Dafa
practitioners to forced labor camps, forcing their work units to fire them or
suspend their salaries to force them to sign the "Three Statements***" 22. [Dalian City, Liaoning Province] Lawless Police Officers Destroy Three
Dafa Materials Production Sites On July 17, policemen from the National Security Team in Dalian City's
Zhongshan Police Precinct destroyed three Dafa materials production sites in
succession. Dafa practitioners Ms. Ren Yazhi, Mr. Yu Xinhua, Ms. Dong Meiyan,
Mr. Sun, an engineer and a female Dafa practitioner were arrested. Machines and
cash worth over one hundred thousand Yuan**** were confiscated. Mr. Sun was detained at the Tianjin Street Police Precinct, and the other
four practitioners were sent to the Yaojia Detention Center. Because of
"disqualification during medical check-up," Ren Yazhi was released.
But after she was released, she didn't calm down to study the Fa enough and
discover hidden attachments that led to the previous losses, and she hurriedly
began to reorganize a new material production site. What she did made it easier
to provide clues for policemen to continuously destroy more Dafa materials
production sites . We hope Dafa practitioners in Dalian City will send forth
righteous thoughts to eliminate the evil in other dimensions while seriously
paying attention to security issues. Let's treat security seriously! 23. [China and Thailand] "Huang Renxiong" is a Special Agent
Deceiving Dafa Practitioners in Mainland China and Thailand (Photos) In May 2003, Huang Renxiong came to Thailand from Mainland China and
presented himself as a Dafa practitioner in order to deceive local
practitioners. In both Thailand and China, some practitioners who didn't deeply
understand the Fa were deceived. His behavior has severely disturbed
practitioners' cultivation practice. We hope those practitioners who were
deluded by him will become clear minded as soon as possible, treat the Fa as
teacher, eliminate attachments to fame, personal interest and sentimentality,
and become righteous practitioners once again. Dafa practitioners in Thailand July 25, 2003 *610 Office: an agency specifically created to persecute Falun
Gong, with absolute power over each level of administration in the Party and all
other political and judiciary **The so-called "Guarantee Statement" is a statement to
declare that he or she is remorseful for practicing Falun Gong and guarantees
not to practice Falun Gong again, not to go to Beijing to appeal for Falun Gong,
and never again associate with any Falun Dafa practitioners. ***Three statements: Practitioners are coerced under
brainwashing and torture to write these as proof that they have given up their
belief. Created by the "610 Office," three statements consist of a
letter of repentance, a guarantee to never again practice Falun Gong, and a list
names and addresses of all family members, friends and acquaintances who are
practitioners. **** Yuan: 500 Yuan is the average monthly income in urban
areas of China.
