Swiss Falun Gong practitioner

(Clearwisdom.net) On March 18, 2006, Swiss Falun Gong practitioners held another "truth clarification" activity at the Paradeplatz located on the Bahnhofstrasse in Zurich. Practitioners exposed to the passers-by the crimes that the Chinese communist regime has committed in a secret concentration camp established in the Sujitatun District, Shenyang City. At least 6,000 Falun Gong practitioners have been illegally imprisoned there, and many have had their organs harvested for extravagant profits. The bodies of the murdered Falun Gong practitioners were incinerated to destroy the evidence.

The photos exhibited at the activity were shocking. A huge banner, which read "Condemning the Chinese Communist Regime for Harvesting Organs from Imprisoned Falun Gong Practitioners in a Secret Concentration Camp and Selling them for Profit," drew attention from many people. They stopped to watch and read the information boards. Some asked practitioners what Falun Gong was all about and why it was persecuted by the Chinese communist regime. Referring to the exercises being demonstrated nearby, practitioners explained to them that Falun Gong is a traditional Chinese cultivation with slow, smooth moving exercises. Practitioners added that Falun Gong requires its practitioners to become good people according to the principles of Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance. However, this could not be tolerated by the Chinese communist regime, which is rooted in falsehood, evil and violence. The regime wanted to control people's thoughts and not allow them to have their own judgment. Therefore, the regime instigated a bloody persecution. Upon learning the truth, many people expressed their willingness to sign their names to support Falun Gong.

A lady came towards the information booth after listening to the explanations. She signed her name on all of the four petition letters, including one for the organ-harvesting at the Sujiatun Concentration Camp, one for rescuing illegally imprisoned Falun Gong practitioners in China, one for rescuing persecuted Falun Gong children, and one for stopping the persecution.

Shocking photos of persecution.

People stop to watch the demonstration.

Upon seeing the photos that depict the organ stealing of the Chinese communist regime, two young ladies cried out, "It is so horrible." They said they went to Shanghai not long ago and purchased some things at low prices. Practitioners told them many Falun Gong practitioners are illegally imprisoned in the labor camps and forced to do slave labor. The products they make are exported to foreign countries. The two young ladies said they felt very guilty that the products they bought might have been made by those Falun Gong practitioners who were forced to labor-- the low price was made possible at the expense of Falun Gong practitioners' suffering. They planned not to buy any more products made in China and they hoped people in other countries would boycott China's products, too.

How could something like this happen?

A practitioner holds a banner to raise public awareness to stop the killing.

An Austrian tourist said his hometown used to be the site of a concentration camp in the Nazi era. People imprisoned there suffered lots of torture, ranging from being beaten and electrically shocked to being buried alive or poisoned to death in gas chambers. The situation was too ghastly to imagine. He commented that more people need to know the truth. We should do our very best to let as many people as possible understand what has been going on in China.

Two young men asked detailed questions about Falun Gong after they understood why the Chinese communist regime persecuted Falun Gong. Upon their departure, they explained to an older gentleman that Falun Gong practitioners were doing very special things, and what they did was right.

An elderly gentleman refused to sign his name in the beginning, but changed his mind after Falun Gong practitioners explained to him the nature of the Chinese communist regime and its brutality in persecuting good people. Practitioners told him the reason they set up the information booth was to expose the lies and clarify the truth. He said he would read Falun Gong's informational material carefully and he might write a letter to the Swiss government. In the end, he signed his name on the petition letter addressed to the Swiss government and the United Nations, urging an immediate investigation into the Sujiatun Concentration Camp.

An elderly gentleman who refused to provide signature originally, changed his mind after listening to the explanation by a Falun Gong practitioner.

By the time practitioners wrapped up and were about to leave, a lady arrived at the site and identified herself as a member of Amnesty International. She said they had some understanding about issues like the Sujiatun Concentration Camp, and she was willing to provide help to Falun Gong practitioners.

In various forms, Falun Gong practitioners will continue to expose the crimes that the Chinese communist regime is committing in Sujiatun.
