(Clearwisdom.net) On December 31, 2005, Falun Gong practitioners in the Kyushu area gathered outside the Chinese Consulate in Fukuoka to protest the Chinese Communist regime's brutal persecution of Falun Gong practitioners that has lasted for more than six years. At 6:30 p.m., practitioners assembled along the wall of the park opposite the Chinese Consulate. Some practitioners sent forth righteous thoughts and some practitioners held banners reading, "Falun Dafa is Great."

Sending forth righteous thoughts in front of the Chinese Consulate in Fukuoka

At the beginning of the activity, Japanese police officers in front of the Chinese Consulate patrolled in front of the practitioners. Seeing that the practitioners were protesting peacefully, they felt assured and came over to inquire about the content of the banners. A practitioner explained to the police what Falun Gong is and told about the persecution of Falun Gong by the Chinese Communist regime. The police officer on duty could not help saying, "[Falun Dafa] is great!" The practitioners' peaceful and righteous words and actions moved the police. They said they would carefully read the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party, to more fully understand the evil nature of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). They said they wanted to read Zhuan Falun as well, to learn about the grand strength of Falun Dafa's "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance."

A little after one o'clock in the morning of January 1, 2006, after sending forth righteous thoughts for the last time, Falun Gong practitioners greeted the first light of morning of the New Year.
