Taiwan: People Support the "Quit the CCP" Parade after Learning the Facts from the Nine Commentaries (Photos)

December 07, 2007 |   By Huang Yusheng from Taiwan

(Clearwisdom.net) A large-scale parade was held in Taichung on December 1, 2007. The parade attracted many Taiwanese people who supported the nearly 30 million brave people in Mainland China who have quit the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) or its affiliated organizations.


A Man Joins in After Learning the Facts from Reading the Nine Commentaries

Mr. Wu is currently studying at the Chinese Research Institute at Tunghai University. He learned about the parade from an advertisement in The Epoch Times newspaper and took the initiative to participate. He said that a professor who teaches "Introduction to the Buddha School" in his junior year talked about the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party when he discussed issues about the CCP persecuting religious beliefs in China. The professor commented that the book thoroughly exposes the Communist Party's evil nature. Mr. Wu then searched the website and found the book. He has since become a loyal reader of The Epoch Times. He has also read books such as The Real Story of Jiang Zemin and Disintegrating the Party Culture, both published on The Epoch Times website.

He also said that he had had many doubts and much confusion about Falun Gong. After reading the Nine Commentaries, he understood that all he had heard about Falun Gong was fabricated by the CCP to deceive and confuse people. He expressed his support for the practitioners' peaceful appeals and said that he would try his best to support the Chinese people and persecuted Falun Gong practitioners in any way he could.

Experiencing the Wonders of Falun Dafa and Witnessing the CCP's Evil Acts

Ms. Yang is from Chungli. She has worked in the insurance field for over 20 years. All four members of her family took part in the parade. She said that she came to know Falun Gong four years ago, but she did not take up cultivation then. She often introduced her relatives and friends to the book Zhuan Falun, and she herself finally decided to practice last year.

She often worked as a volunteer at her children's school. She introduced teachers and students to the goodness and wonders of Falun Dafa. Recently, at the request of teachers and students, she has been going to the school every Monday and Thursday afternoon to teach the Falun Gong exercises.

She said that she has truly experienced the goodness of cultivation and that this experience itself is enough to verify the unreasonable nature of the CCP's persecution. Before she took up the practice, she was stubborn and unruly. After practicing Falun Gong, she began looking at things from a broader perspective. She bases her work ethic in the insurance field on "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance," and has gained friendship and trust from many more insurers. They also learn about the wonderfulness of Falun Dafa and the persecution in China.

Ms. Yang said that the parade is of great importance as it raises awareness to many more Taiwanese people about the CCP's evil nature and the brutal persecution inflicted upon Falun Gong practitioners. It will also accelerate the disintegration of the CCP.

An Older Man Said: "The CCP is jealous of Falun Gong."

Taichung resident Mr. Tsai is 80 years old. He attended the press conference prior to the parade. He said that the activity carries great meaning, because as long as the CCP disintegrates peacefully, the mainland will be as democratic as Taiwan, and the Taiwanese people will not be subject to the CCP's military threats.

He said that the CCP is corrupt, that it can't bear to see so many people practicing Falun Gong, and therefore persecutes innocent people. He said that he learned from television that Falun Gong benefits people both physically and mentally. He was certain that the CCP is jealous of Falun Gong.

Filming the Parade and Showing his Chinese Friends

Mr. Lim is from Ilan. He is a dealer who publishes ads in The Epoch Times newspaper. He said he was "amazed" when asked how he felt about the parade. He asked his friend who came with him to film the entire parade so he could send it to his Chinese friends.

He previously did business in China, and had long experienced the distrust and struggle between the people there. Through his contacts with Falun Gong practitioners, he knows that practitioners are kind and warmhearted, completely different from what is described in the CCP slander.

The Manager of a Toy Store Shouts "Falun Dafa is good."

When the parade procession passed by a toy store, the manager of the store, Mr. Lim, stood on a chair and enthusiastically shouted, "Falun Dafa is good!" "The CCP is bad." He kept applauding the parade participants and repeatedly expressed his thanks. He said that the CCP is like a tree that is no longer good, that its fruits are bad, and that the CCP is about to be uprooted. He said that people's strength is precious. He wanted to bravely express his true thoughts. He asked his daughter and staff beside him to step forward to support the righteous people.

Building Guard Says "The Chinese officials are overbearing."

A building guard was attracted by the parade procession and came out to watch. He said to people beside him that the persecution of beliefs in China is very serious, and not only Falun Gong. Other similar groups have also been subjected to the persecution.

He said that the CCP officials are arrogant and unreasonable. They do not allow people to do things that they themselves do. When he learned that participants of the parade voluntarily came from around Taiwan at their own expense, he expressed his admiration.

Investing in China and Almost Deceived, Mr. Xu Witnessed the CCP's Evil Nature

Mr. Xu and his mother watched the parade for quite some time. They said they had planned to go to Tianjin to invest many years ago, but they canceled their plans in a timely manner, because they witnessed the CCP officials using despicable means to lure Taiwanese business people to invest, then extorting money from them using debased methods. One of their relatives was the manager of a factory in China, and he could not afford to pay all the different taxes collected by different government departments, and was forced into bankruptcy. He was too ashamed to return to Taiwan and see his relatives and friends, and had to stay in China to work for others for a living. Mr. Xu kept saying, "The CCP is too evil."

During the parade, some people said they wanted to learn the practice of Falun Gong the next day.
