Malaysia's China Press Reports on Falun Gong Practitioners' Protest over Persecution by the Chinese Communist Party (Photo) (Clearwisdom.net) Malaysia's China Press reported on June 8
that 20 Falun Gong practitioners gathered in front of the Chinese Embassy in
Malaysia and protested the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)'s persecution of Falun
Gong. The practitioners gathered along the sidewalk across from the embassy at
around 8 a.m. They held banners reading, "Falun Dafa is good," and
"Protesting the spread of the persecution of Falun Gong to Malaysia".
The appeal lasted for one hour. Mr. Cai Qiang, the spokesperson for the appeal, said that practitioners were
protesting the charges filed against the nine directors of the Falun Dafa
Research Centre Berhad (FDRCB), and the fine of as high as 40,000 Malaysian
ringgit. The charges were not reasonable and they hoped the Malaysia government
would withdraw them. He pointed out that the purpose of the appeal was to explain the facts of
Falun Gong to the Malaysian government and people, and the Chinese Embassy.
FDRCB distributed a press release which stated that the nine directors were
charged with an offense related to the Companies Act on May 31. There were six charges, including no company name and registration number
printed on formal receipts, not providing an audited financial report and annual
report. These were purely technical errors. The statement indicated that the Chinese Embassy continued to interfere with
local practitioners. During the last few years, Falun Gong practitioners applied
for registration as an association, but were refused without any reason. "Falun Gong practitioners submitted a memo to the Malaysia Human Rights
Committee about this issue and the committee said they would pay attention to
it." The statement pointed out that, based on many newspaper reports, the
Corporation Registration Bureau rejected the Falun Gong practitioners'
application because of pressure from the Chinese Embassy. The statement further stated that after FDRCB was registered, the
interference continued. Before the case, the Malaysia Corporation Registration
Bureau requested the FDRCB to close for various reasons, one of which being
"national security". Posting date: 6/14/2005
