[Changchun City] Practitioners at Fenjin Labor Camp stop a Falun Gong-slandering session Recently authorities at Fenjin Labor Station in the City of Changchun attempted to hold a meeting to slander and attack Falun Gong.á At the beginning of the meeting, one practitioner stood up to protest, and then all the other practitioners held at the labor camp stood up demanding to clear the name of the Teacher and Falun Gong.á The guards beat the practitioners on the spot but were forced to abort the meeting.á The practitioner who stood up first was later forced to remain standing with his back bent for a long period of time.á In addition, his Friday visitation privilege with his family was removed. á [Qingdao City] Qingdao practitioners push aside numerous difficulties to reach local residents Recently Qingdao practitioners studied Master Li's short article "Suffocating the Evil," "Serious Teaching" on Minghui, and the lecture made by Master Li at the U.S. West Falun Dafa Experience Sharing Conference.á These articles as well as the news of the tragic death of local practitioner Zou Songtao at the labor camp made the practitioners throughout the city realize that they should no longer passively suffer in silence.á Instead, they decided to work actively to assist in the Fa-rectification process and fulfill their roles as particles of the Dafa (Great Law).á On November 18, they posted Falun Gong truth-clarifying flyers, painted Falun Gong slogans, and hung Falun Gong banners throughout the city.á Falun Gong materials could be seen everywhere in places such as the local detention center, the City North Police Station, and the sites of the "transformation classes," where a great deal of persecution of Falun Gong practitioners took place.á In addition, many flyers, banners and slogans appeared in congested tourist and business districts.á This movement helped tremendously in "suffocating the evil," touched the hearts of many local residents, and encouraged practitioners to cultivate themselves even more diligently.á The atmosphere at the "transformation class" in the City North District is malevolent.á The practitioners who were forced to attend the class are not allowed to speak to each other at all.á The authorities try to force everyone to write pledges promising to give up Falun Gong and turn in all Falun Gong books in their possession.á In addition to these demands, in order to "pass the class," the practitioners had to write essays attacking Falun Gong and read them aloud during public meetings, and then turn in at least one practitioner that they knew.á The practitioners who are being forced to attend the class include Sun Meihong, Yan Jinfang, Du Faxian, Cao Yixiang, Su Guihua, Hao Changqing, and Zhang Hongru.á Some of them have asked fellow practitioners to care for their children.á All of them have made long-term plans and are determined to use their lives to protect and validate the Fa.á People who are in charge of the class include a person with the surname of Geng from the City North District's Politics and Law Commission, and people with the surnames of Yu, Xue and Zhao from the local judicial system.á The following is a partial list of Qingdao practitioners who have been sent to the labor camps recently: City South Districtá Zhao Zongyue, male, sentenced to three years at the Fushan Labor Camp Lu

practitioners.á They are rounding up practitioners and forcing them to attend the "transformation classes" at the Miquan Communist Party Advanced Education School.á Because of this, some practitioners who are not willing to be taken away by the evil have been forced to leave their homes, and their locations are currently unknown.á Practitioners Zhang Lihua and her husband were arrested on July 10, 2000 while chatting with their friends in their home.á Their Falun Gong books and audiocassettes were confiscated.á On August 24, Zhang Lihua, 27, was sentenced to three years at the labor camps for "gathering people to study Falun Gong books" and "going to Beijing to appeal for Falun Gong."á Her husband was released on August 11 after his family posted a hefty bail.á He is rarely at home now because his family members are always watching his every movement and the police are looking to send him to the "transformation class." Recently the lock of his front door was pried open, and nobody knows who did it.á Practitioner Li Xiaopin was taken away from her home by the Miquan Police Department Political Security Division on the evening of October 16, 2000, and the police are still holding her to this day.á Nobody is allowed to visit her or even bring winter clothes to her.á The winter in the Xinjiang Province is especially brutal, and she was wearing thin layers of clothing when she was taken away by the police.á When her family members went to the police department asking for her whereabouts on November 16, they were told that she had been moved to another location, but the police would not tell where the new location was.á Her husband has been forced to leave home recently, and nobody knows where he is right now.á Practitioner Song Meiying was arrested by the police on November 17 while at work and is still being held by the police to this day.á Xue Li, 27, from the city of Urumqi, was arrested on the evening of November 16 when she went out with her husband to distribute Falun Gong flyers.áá á [Pengzhou City] Names of people responsible for the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners in the Township of Mengyang Zhen Wanghua, the general secretary of the local Communist Party branch in the township of Mengyang, Pengzhou city, heads a group of people who willingly perform dirty deeds for Jiang Zemin and persecute Falun Gong practitioners viciously.á More than one hundred local practitioners were beaten, and several hundred homes were ransacked.á Dozens of practitioners were arrested and detained, three of them were sent to the labor camps. Two practitioners were illegally held at the local governmental office for more than 50 days.á Several hundred practitioners were forced to pay fines totaling over 100,000 Yuan (it is impossible to obtain an accurate tally, each person was fined ranging from several hundred to tens of thousands of Yuan).á The evil people spent the fines taking lavish vacations, attending local carnivals, and receiving bonus pay.á They did everything they could to fulfill their objectives of slandering the reputation of Falun Gong, bankrupting Falun Gong practitioners, and destroying the health of Falun Gong practitioners.á In spite of their cruelty, local practitioners have determinedly walked through it all.á Now it is time to expose their cruelty to the kind-hearted people all over the world. Huang Rensong, one of the people responsible for persecuting Falun Gong practitioners, recently was stabbed several times and is still in the hospital right now. Maybe it marks the beginning of the evil people receiving their punishments for their evil deeds.áá [Joujiang City, Jiangxi Province] Names of local practitioners arrested and detained Since this October, the local police have ransacked the homes of many Falun Gong practitioners.á Any practitioner who had Falun Gong books or truth-clarifying material in his or her home was immediately arrested and detained by the police.á The following is a partial list of practitioners being held at the local detention center:á Gui Shuirong, female, 60, a retired worker from Joujiang Instrumentation Factory Zhang Jinming, male, 48, a worker at Joujiang Plastics Factory Hu Zhuanglie, male, 48, a worker at Joujiang Oxygen Manufacturing Factory Zhang Huiyu, female, 45, wife of Hu Zhuanglie Cui Qingjiao, female, 36, a worker at Joujiang Rubber Factory Xiang Danggui, female, 60, Cui's mother and a retiree from Xinyu County Porcelain Factory Yang Yinpin, female, 36, a worker at Joujiang Gulin Hotel Chen Likuan, male, 40, a worker at Joujiang Tourist Service Company Wang Shan, female, 60, a retired worker from Joujiang 2nd Textile Factory Cao Jin, female, 18, a student at Joujiang Teacher's College Lin Koulan, 36, a worker at Joujiang Sander Factory Huang Zhengxing, male, 36, a worker at Joujiang Light Machinery Factory Sun Hanfang, female, 60, a retired worker from Joujiang Light Machinery Factory [Heyuan City, Guangdong Province] Names of practitioners in the County of Lianpin who were sent to labor camps Peng Zhenpin, female, 24, a teacher at the Liaopin County Middle School, sentenced to two years at the labor camps. Hong Cailan, female, 38, a worker at the Joulian Mountain Logging Factory, sentenced to two years at the labor camps.

[Shenzhen, Guangdong Province] Local police arrest every single practitioner they can find The Shenzhen police has carried their evil deeds to such a degree that they arrested every single practitioner they could find.á Once under police custody, the practitioners are asked to sign pledges promising to give up Falun Gong.á Anyone who refuses to do so is immediately sent to labor camps. Practitioners Peng Gonghui and Zhong Pin are being held at the Sanshui Labor Station.á Even though the evil forces have tried many times to bend their wills, their faith in the Dafa remains unshaken.á [Sichuan Province] The Provincial Government holds an emergency meeting to step up the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners Recently a large number of Falun Gong truth-clarifying flyers appeared on the streets of Chengdu, and many local businesses, governmental agencies, and police departments have also received similar materials through the mail.á Because of this, the authorities have grown even angrier and started a new wave of persecution of Falun Gong practitioners.á The police arrested countless practitioners, including Hu Chaolin, Rao Chunmei, and Xiao Subi, once again.á It is impossible to obtain an accurate number of practitioners who were arrested recently.á Practitioners like Liu Bangcheng, who has been a senior member of the Communist Party for a few decades, had their memberships in the Party revoked. On October 17, the Provincial Government held an emergency meeting to study some articles sent from the Central Government.á The articles claimed that a group of secret agents from Taiwan and the Chinese pro-democracy movement were responsible for putting up the flyers, and they were urging practitioners to go to Beijing to appeal for Falun Gong.á Therefore, any practitioner who refuses to be "transformed" should be persecuted the way that the Communist Party treated the "Four Undesirables" (landowners, rich peasants, anti-revolutionaries, and bad elements) in the 50s and 60s.á Any practitioner who belongs to the Communist Party will have his or her membership revoked.á Any practitioner who holds a job can will fired.á In addition, officials from the Sichuan Province Ministry of Law went to the Dayan Labor Camp in the City of Ziyang to meet with practitioners being held there.á They announced a new governmental policy, which steps up persecution of Falun Gong practitioners.á The new policy basically states that because some practitioners who have been released from the labor camps are found not to have been completely "transformed," now any practitioner whose term is up will be examined to make sure he is truly "transformed" before he can be released.á [Beijing] Practitioner Yu Pin and his wife taken away from their home for no apparent reason The police arrested Beijing practitioners Yu Pin and his wife at their home on October 18th for no apparent reason.á Their home was ransacked, and their personal belongings such as personal computers, TV, VCR, and money were confiscated.á Yu Pin has been held at the Sanjianfang Detention Center in the district of Chaoyang since his arrest. He has been on a hunger strike for a number of days.á His health is very fragile and extremely worrisome.á His wife was able to get away after being arrested, but she has been placed on the "wanted list."á She had no choice but to wander on the streets and could not go back home.á She is several months pregnant and needs the care of her husband and a stable environment.á The tremendous difficulty that she is experiencing right now is undoubtedly hurting both the baby and the mother. We ask the kind-hearted people everywhere to support and assist them.á [Sichuan Province] Secret agent pretends to be practitioner to damage Dafa Recently, a self-proclaimed "practitioner" from Jinchou, a city in northeastern China, came to see her sister who is living with her husband in a county in Sichuan.á She asked her sister to introduce several practitioners to her, saying that she wanted to hold experience-sharing sessions with them.á During the experience-sharing sessions, she said that many practitioners who are being held at the Masanjiang Labor Station have been "transformed," but her husband (who she said was being held there as well) was not one of them.á She also claimed that she herself had been just released from the prison.á She was able to gain the trust of local practitioners, and many of them went to talk with her to share their experiences and ideas.á Thus she was able to find out details about local practitioners, including when and where they were planning to distribute Falun Gong materials and where the materials came from.á As a result, more than 10 practitioners were arrested, which caused substantial damage to the local Falun Gong movement.
