(Clearwisdom.net) Several hundred Falun Dafa practitioners have been refused entry to Hong Kong since June 25, 2007. One of those deported, Ms. Chen Meifang, a teacher employed by the Houbi High School in Taiwan, was interviewed after the incident. She felt the whole thing is ridiculous. She declared loudly, "The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) will collapse because it is scared of me, an old woman!" She also commented, "I will try my best to tell people about my experience and not allow them to be fooled by the CCP's false image. Whoever cooperates with the CCP is its helper!"

Ms. Chen Meifang has been teaching art in the Houbi High School for 26 years. She planned to go to Hong Kong together with one of her colleagues and another friend of hers since it is summer vacation. They took a flight at about 5 p.m. on June 26, 2007 via Mandarin Airlines.

When the plane arrived, they were made to wait on the aircraft for a long time. Ms. Chen felt strange, then walked out of the airplane by herself. As soon as she walked out of the gate, there were 30-40 airport police and armed police waiting there. One of them stopped Ms. Chen and asked her to show her ID. Ms. Chen refused because they were not customs. The officers were silent.

Ms. Chen was not permitted to enter Hong Kong, and was told she was not welcome. Ms. Chen asked why, but the officer had no comment. Hence, Ms. Chen sincerely told everyone that she was a Falun Dafa practitioner, and she came to Hong Kong to appeal to Hu Jintao, hoping he could end the illegal persecution of Falun Gong in China. Ms. Chen told everyone about the organ harvesting atrocities underway in Mainland China. She saw an officer wipe away tears.

After a long while, officers took her passport from her purse by force, and 7-8 officers hoisted her up.

Instantly, she thought, "This is ridiculous! How can they treat me, a teacher, like a criminal!"

From that high up, Ms. Chen was not scared, but she loudly and repeatedly said, "One country-two systems is a lie! The CCP lied! The purpose of my trip is to request Hu Jintao end the persecution. It is too inhuman how the CCP is killing Chinese people!"

The police were afraid that other passengers would hear Ms. Chen's repeated statements. They carried her to a small room. She said, "I used to teach in a prison. Today, I was treated like a prisoner and treated worse than a prisoner because I have no freedom at all." She was asked keep her door open when using the restroom. Ms. Chen insisted, "Closing the door when using the restroom is a basic human right for the sake of human dignity!" The officers them consented.

The officers conducted a body search of her, making her feel depressed. She said she used to search her students' backpack if certain materials were found inside the school. Little did she know that she would be body searched in Hong Kong!

Later someone who claimed to be in charge had a talk with Ms. Chen. Ms. Chen told him that the police behavior was irrational. She said, "I have a legal passport and obtained a legal visa from the Hong Kong government. I booked the tickets and a hotel room, but you refuse to let me enter. What should I do with that hotel room? How will I face my friends, who are waiting outside customs?"

The person in charge replied. "I am very sorry because things have been rather sensitive recently. We will welcome you come again after July 2, 2007." He also said it was to "express harmony" in Hong Kong while Hu Jintao was visiting. Ms. Chen said, "This is a false harmony!" She gave her New Epoch magazine to him and hoped he would learn the truth by reading the magazine. That person accepted it and thanked her.

Soon an officer, Lin (male, last name unknown), entered the room. Ms. Chen asked both of them, "I did not commit any crime; was it right to treat me like this today?" They expressed that they understand Falun Gong's wishes but hoped Ms. Chen Meifang would "understand" it was based on "upper levels' request." They were trying to keep their jobs.

Officer Lin had a long talk with Ms. Chen, and she sensed the sadness of Hong Kong people under the CCP rule, fearing the CCP because they live under the influence of the CCP's deceitful propaganda.

Ms. Chen Meifang told Officer Lin she met a person in Hong Kong who said, "The people in Hong Kong drink the water flowing from the mainland and eat food shipped from the mainland [so we have to obey the CCP]." Ms. Chen Meifang answered quickly, "That is wrong! Chinese people have provided food for you, not the CCP! The water is provided by the gods! If there is not rain, where is the water flowing from the mainland? Have you thought about that?" Officer Lin had nothing to say.

Later Officer Lin asked again, "Why have Falun Gong practitioners come one wave after another? You must know that you will be deported." Ms. Chen answered, "Actually I did not know at all. I obtained a legal visa from the Hong Kong government." Ms. Chen told him how she lived under pressure and had so many diseases before. After cultivating Falun Gong, her life turned from bitter to sweet. She feel very light because she was free from illness, and she had never been so happy.

Officer Lin was puzzled, "You know you would expose your identity by carrying the book Zhuan Falun. Are you not afraid of being deported?" Ms. Chen calmly replied, "Why would I be afraid? I am openly and honestly a Falun Dafa practitioner; I have nothing to fear." Officer Lin said, "I see courage in you." Moved by Falun Gong practitioners' effort exposing the CCP crimes, he also commented, "I see you Falun Gong practitioners do not pursue profit."

He continued, saying that the economy has improved in Hong Kong these years, and Hong Kong is a place where people emphasize profit. People agree with the CCP because their life has improved. Ms. Chen said, "Imagine if you lost your freedom. When Article 23 was about to be forced on Hong Kong, all people stood against it. If all of Hong Kong stood against the CCP, the CCP would collapse instantly."

Ms. Chen said, "In order to safeguard the people of Hong Kong's human rights, we Falun Gong practitioners joined the giant parade opposing Article 23. We supported Hong Kong's people. But now you deport us with violence. That is wrong."

Ms. Chen found Officer Lin in tears when he agreed with her comment. Ms. Chen Meifang told the journalist that she spoke with Officer Lin for a long time. He shook hands with her at the end and welcomed her to come to Hong Kong again.

Later Ms. Chen was with other Falun Dafa practitioners whom she did not know. They agreed to go up, one by one, and tell all the airline police officers who were watching them their personal cultivation story and why they came to Hong Kong.

Ms. Chen described the whole process as very peaceful. She could sense each officer listening quietly. They each practitioner spoke clearly, despite some of their voices being quiet. She saw that the officers were forced to follow the CCP.

Ms. Chen Meifang said she is not angry at the officers who treated her rudely in Hong Kong Airport. The CCP is the dark minion who fears its crime of persecuting Falun Gong being exposed. It even fears the old, the weak, and the young. This indicates that the CCP is about to collapse!

Ms. Chen Meifang said she will tell her students, friends, and family her experience in the Hong Kong Airport. She said, "Freedom is so precious. When you lose you freedom, there is nothing left."

Ms. Chen Meifang said also, being a high school teacher earning her salary at taxpayers' expense, she is responsible for telling the Taiwanese people the truth about the CCP and the fact that it is about to collapse. From the bottom of her heart, she hopes Taiwan people are not fooled and businesses and and people in Taiwan are not used by the CCP. She is only a common high school teacher, but the CCP has her name on the black list. There are too many spies. She feels sad about how the airlines cooperated with the CCP by giving in to it.

Ms. Chen sincerely asks, "Do not agree with the CCP and assist it in doing harm!"
