The Mayor of Puli, Ms. Ma Wenjun shared her thoughts about this activity: "Many Falun Gong practitioners here look so healthy and radiant. They have organized this art performance so well and promoted good thinking. They make society more peaceful through such excellent activities. Today's entertainment by the Falun Dafa Association brought us a peaceful heart. It is exactly what is needed in our society. More activities like this are needed to improve the general atmosphere of our society."

Mayor of Puli, Ms. Ma Wenjun shares her observations and thoughts about the performances.

Renowned painter and calligrapher Mr. Li Fengfu expressed high praise for this entertainment. He said, "It is a very positive activity, especially when violence is prevalent in our society. This art has a very positive influence on the general atmosphere of society." Mr. Li has been promoting traditional Chinese poems, calligraphy, guqin and painting. When mentioning the CCP's sabotage of Chinese traditional culture, he said, "During the Cultural Revolution, Red Guards burned so many guqin! They destroyed the traditional culture. Fortunately, it's been preserved in Taiwan!" Mr. Li doesn't give performances at every concert, but he took his antique guqin from the Tang Dynasty to perform at this event to show his support for "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance."

Mr. Cai Jinli, CEO of the Lanshan Coffee Company, gave the activity incredible support. Many celebrities attended the activity as a result of his invitation. Having lived in Taipei for thirty years, Mr. Cai is well established in his career. However, once he almost died from a serious disease. Since his recovery, he has a strong urge to contribute to his hometown and society, and he helped make this entertainment possible. With encouragement from his Falun Gong practitioner friends, he is determined to read Zhuan Falun from cover to cover.

Many Falun Gong practitioners had prepared for as long as a half year on this activity. Ms. Wu Suzheng talked about its meaning: "Beautiful Puli Town is where many excellent artists gather. But many of them have been to mainland China and heard many slanderous reports about Falun Gong from the Chinese media. We want to show the beauty of 'Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance' to artists, government officials, people's representatives and celebrities through today's entertainment. An Anti-Torture Exhibition in Zhongxing New Village tomorrow will expose the cruel persecution of Falun Gong by the Chinese Communist Party."

Five years of brutal persecution have failed to eradicate Falun Gong. On the contrary, Falun Gong has spread to one hundred million people in more than sixty countries of different ethnicities, languages and political systems. Mr. Li Hongzhi, the founder of Falun Gong, has received support and awards from governments around the world.
