(Clearwisdom.net) During the period that marks the eighth year of the Chinese Communist Party's (CCP) persecution of Falun Gong, practitioners from Batam Island, Indonesia held a series of activities to clarify the facts and protest the brutal persecution in China.

On July 21, 2007, Falun Gong practitioners decorated their vehicles with various truth clarifying banners and drove to the local news agency. They talked to people about what Falun Gong is and how the CCP brutally persecutes innocent Falun Gong practitioners. In the evening, Falun Gong practitioners held a candlelight vigil outside the city government building. They mourned for fellow practitioners who died as a result of the CCP's persecution in mainland China.
