By a practitioner from Australia

(Clearwisdom.net) On November 29, Falun Gong practitioners took part in the Christmas Parade in Norwood Payneham & St. Peters, Adelaide.

Demonstrating the exercises on the float

Eighty-three groups representing different cultural backgrounds, including Indian, Korean, and Japanese, took part in the parade. They wore their traditional costumes and played their traditional music. Practitioners were dressed in Tang Dynasty-style outfits. They demonstrated the exercises on their float, and their banner, with the words "The World Needs Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance," was sincerely applauded by the parade spectators.

The Christmas Parade has a history of 30 years in Norwood Payneham & St. Peters, a town of 34,000. More than ten thousand people saw the parade this year.
