Central News Agency [Taiwan], April 8, Special Report from Berlin:
Jiang Zemin arrived in Berlin on April 8, 2002. Over one hundred Falun Gong practitioners protested as the motorcade headed toward the center of the city.

News from America
In Madison City, Wisconsin, WORT is a major radio station. Its afternoon news program, "Public Affairs," is very popular and attracts a large listening audience. On April 5, 2002, WORT broadcast a special program about Falun Dafa and invited a Western practitioner to talk about his personal experiences during his trip to China with the other 35 practitioners who had peacefully protested in Tiananmen Square. Many listeners expressed their concern about the shockingly brutal persecution in China and signed their names to support Falun Dafa.
Hearing the Truth and Revealing People's Hearts
After the Changchun cable TV network aired Falun Gong truth clarification videos, the Guangzhou Daily published two warning poems written by the founder of Falun Gong.

Today, 105 people published solemn declarations rescinding all that they had written, said and done under the evil's brainwashing and high-pressure persecution that didn't conform to Dafa.

Having been arrested for promoting Falun Dafa in a rural area, we went on a hunger strike to protest our illegal detention. A pregnant practitioner had a miscarriage as a result of the torture. On the fourteenth day, the authorities were afraid that we may die of dehydration and that they may be held responsible. Since I am older than the others, they let me go. I said, "No, even though we will die, we will die together." Using righteous thoughts, we all walked out of the detention center.
Four months after I was released from a forced labor camp where I had been held for two years, I was kidnapped by four policemen and taken to the provincial female forced labor camp. I refused to cooperate with them and continued to send forth righteous thoughts. With the assistance of my relatives, I walked out the labor camp with steadfast faith in Dafa.
Practitioners' Thoughts
When working on the preparation of Dafa materials, we need to be full of great aspirations while minding minor details and be strict with ourselves. Every practitioner should meet the standard of a true cultivator and coordinate with others so that each practitioner can make his or her contribution yet not obstruct other practitioners' paths to consummation.
