(Clearwisdom.net) On Sunday, July 10, as usual, Falun Gong practitioners held group practice in front of the Chiang Kai-Shek Memorial Hall, a famous tourist attraction site. On this day, an eye-catching poster and a banner for a petition drive was added. On the poster, photos of the Australian practitioner's wounded feet in the South Africa shooting incident were showed. Zeng Qinghong, one of Jiang's major accomplices in the suppression of Falun Gong was visiting South Africa when the incident occurred. He is suspected to have hired gunmen to shoot Falun Gong practitioners who planned to stage a peaceful appeal against his visit. In order to inform people and join together to resist the persecution by Jiang's political group and their strategy to extend state-terrorism overseas, Taiwan Falun Gong practitioners started a signature collection campaign which received wide public support.
In the afternoon, some practitioners demonstrated the five-sets of Falun Dafa exercises, and some distributed flyers explaining the facts of the persecution. An elderly lady came over with her small granddaughter. The little girl asked her grandma, "What is this?" The grandma said, "Practice will not only improve one's health but also one's heart nature." Sunday evening is also the time for Minghui school students to practice the exercises outdoors. An adult said to his child, "One can freely practice the exercises in Taiwan. Let's go there!" Then he took his child to the young practitioners' site and learned the exercises there.

A group of Japanese tourists passed by our booth. Looking at the posters, the tourist guide introduced that this was Falun Gong. Japanese tourists learned the persecution facts after looking at those photos. Then came a group of tourists from Mainland China. They looked very nice. When practitioners went over to clarify the truth, they said they already saw the posters in Hong Kong and they were already aware of it. They were very pleased to accept and read the truth-clarifying flyers. A lady who dressed very stylishly said that she was not educated and unable to read the materials when a practitioner handed the literature to her. The practitioner said that she looked very well educated. She was very pleased with the compliment and accepted the flyers. Practitioners further exposed the lies spread by the Chinese authorities and asked her to read the flyers carefully. In the end, she said that she understood it. An Indian gentleman directly came to our booth and asked what he could do for us. When practitioners said in English, "human rights", he signed the petition. When a westerner passed by, a practitioner said in broken English, "Many Falun Gong practitioners were killed in China" and "Falun Gong practitioners were shot in South Africa". The westerner immediately signed the petition. There were also other people coming by and asking about the incident and why it occurred and so on. After finding out the facts, they all signed the petition in support of Falun Gong and against the Jiang group's atrocities.
Practitioners also clarified the truth in detail, starting from what Falun Gong is, how it has spread worldwide and how it is persecuted in China to the recent shooting incident in South Africa. An analysis of the facts indicates that the Jiang group is exporting its state-run terrorism to other countries. If these acts of terrorism are not stopped, victims will not be limited to Falun Gong practitioners. If we do not pay attention to this and do not work together to stop the Jiang group's crimes, we will be unable to live a secure life. Some people who had been indifferent in the past also signed the petition after listening to practitioners' explanations.
