Malaysia: "Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance International Art Exhibition" Held on National Day (Photos) By a practitioner in Malaysia
(Clearwisdom.net, September 3, 2005) On August 31, 2005, Malaysia
celebrated its 48th National Day. To help local people understand the
ongoing Chinese Communist Party (CCP)'s brutal persecution of Falun Gong and
call for an end to the persecution, Falun Gong practitioners applied for a
permit to have a "Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance International Art
Exhibition" in Taman Rakyat Park, Klang City, Selangor State, where crowds
of people visit daily. The Klang city government approved the application after
learning the facts, and the art exhibition was held successfully. Many local
people came to know about Falun Gong and signed their names to support the
effort to oppose the persecution. The exhibition was divided into two periods: 7 a.m. to 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. to
7 p.m. Dozens of paintings were set up in the central area of the park.
Practitioners demonstrated the exercises and set up a table to collect
signatures. They also offered free teaching of the practice. Many local people came to visit the art exhibition and learn Falun Gong. When
they heard about the CCP's ongoing persecution of Falun Gong, many were
astounded. After learning the facts, many people signed their names to call for
an end of the persecution. Many people also wanted to learn Falun Gong. A Malaysian citizen said that he regretted that only after viewing the
paintings did he learn about the persecution. He was moved after he learned that
facing the persecution for 6 years, practitioners kept clarifying the truth
peacefully. He hoped that more such activities would be held to help more people
find out the facts about Falun Gong. A Chinese visitor expressed admiration for the practitioners' spirit of
taking hardship lightly. A practitioner said that living in a good environment,
it's hard for someone to imagine the cruelty of the persecution. Everyone should
do their best and help to rescue the practitioners being persecuted in China. After looking at the paintings, people gained an awareness of the CCP's
brutal persecution of Falun Gong. Posting date: 9/5/2005 |
