(Clearwisdom.net) Recently, several VIPs in New
Zealand wrote letters to Falun Gong practitioner Ms. Yanchen He (in New Zealand)
expressing their concerns regarding the illegal detention of Yanchen He's
Father, Falun Gong practitioner Sanpu He, in China. The Minister of Foreign
Affairs, Rt Hon Winston Peters, informed him that the New Zealand Ambassador in
Beijing has contacted the Chinese government, asking about the current status of
Mr. Sanpu He. Maori Party Co-leader Tariana Turia wrote in a letter of August 7,
2006 that: "I wish you ongoing courage as you seek the pursuit of justice.
My thoughts are with you." Below is the text of a letter from Honorable
Tariana Turia, Co-leader, Maori Party.

Yanchen He
(address omitted)
Thank you for your letter of 25 July 2006, regarding the
request to rescue Mr. Sanpu He from Wan Qing Villa, Zheng Zhou City, Henan
Province.
I was so disturbed by the account of your experience,
particularly the suffering that your mother and father have been through, as
well as the agonizing situation you have been in for over six years of
separation from your family.
I am familiar with the general situation, as described in the
report of 6 July 2006, "Report into allegations of organ harvesting of
Falun Gong practitioners in China' and have recommended that this information
should be immediately directed to the attention of the Minister of Foreign
Affairs, Rt Hon Winston Peters. I have written previously to the Minister about
the treatment of Falun Gong practitioners and I would recommend, that it is his
Ministry that should be directly approached for expert assistance in the case of
your parents.
I would also recommend that you contact Rosslyn Noonan, the
Chief Commissioner, Human Rights Commission, PO Box 12411, Thorndon, Wellington.
The pain that you and your husband are enduring, as you seek
to be reunited with your family, is clearly evident. I wish you ongoing courage
as you seek the pursuit of justice. My thoughts are with you.
Heol ano
Tariana Turia
Co-leader, Maori Party
