Seeing the reenactment of live organ harvesting, some passersby stopped to watch and were shocked and burst into tears for the suffering of Falun Gong practitioners in China. Falun Gong practitioners who participated in the demonstration said that what they displayed here is only tip of the iceberg of all kinds of torture and persecution imposed upon Falun Gong practitioners who are imprisoned in China.

The parade caught the attention of numerous mainstream media organizations and became the focus of attention outside the APEC meeting sites. Over ten media organizations including Australian Channel 9, Channel 7, SBS, ABC TV, BBC, ABC Radio Broadcasting Station, The Sydney Morning Herald, Sydney Morning Herald Online, French Channel 24, The Daily Telegraph, 3G Radio Broadcasting Station, and 2GB Radio Broadcasting Station conducted interviews, and the ASP made a special interview on the event.

The parade and rally also attracted attention from passersby along the parade route. Many took photos with their cell phones. When the procession passed through a major street in downtown Sydney, a Westerner gave the thumbs-up to the procession and said, "[The parade is] very good, so peaceful. Well done!"

Although police security is very tight during the APEC summit, the police still gave the green light to the rally and parade and approved the only parade involving road closures so far during the APEC summit.
