(Clearwisdom.net) The Seventh annual Yung-an Grouper Culture Fair in Kaohsiung County took place on November 18-19, 2006. In order to celebrate the persistence and purity of the local culture in this two-day event, various folk arts were showcased, and the organizer invited Falun Gong practitioners to perform an exercise demonstration. This gave the local people and tourists an opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of Falun Gong.

Yung-an is a small coastal township located in the western part of Kaohsiung County, known as the "Township of the Grouper."

Besides the Falun Gong exercise demonstration, tourists were also attracted by the traditional-style fair section, the ecology of the grouper exhibit and local folk arts exhibit, as well as stage performances and fireworks in the evening.

The organizer specially arranged for the Falun Gong exercise demonstration to be held at noon, the busiest hour of the fair on Sunday, November 19. Before the demonstration, to help the audience better understand Falun Gong, practitioners distributed materials and introduced the facts of the persecution and the Chinese Communist regime's organ harvesting from living Falun Gong practitioners for profit in China. The head of the township also came to watch the practitioners' exercise demonstration.
