(Clearwisdom.net) On May 8, 2005, amidst the usual breeze and waves, Pattaya Beach saw a different scene. There were over 50 Falun Gong practitioners in yellow Dafa shirts gathered here to demonstrate the exercises, distribute truth-clarification flyers, and clarify the truth to passersby. They unfurled banners reading, "Celebrate the 13^th Anniversary of Falun Gong Being Introduced to the Public," "The World Needs Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance" and "Falun Dafa is Good."

Exercise Demonstration

Pattaya is a world-famous tourist resort, with a lot of tourists from China and other countries visiting every day. For years, Thai Falun Gong practitioners have used this place to clarify the truth to people. They have clarified the truth to the local administration and police many times, and distributed numerous truth-clarification materials to the tourists.

Clarifying the truth to tourists

For one week, the Thai practitioners have been working together to prepare for this anniversary event. Some practitioners coordinated the communications, some rented the bus to transport practitioners, some made banners and some provided the materials and other resources. Everyone was happy for this Fa-promotion activity. The participants ranged in age from a two-and-a-half-year-old to 70 years old. Before they completed the activity, the practitioners expressed their wish together: Dear Master, Happy Birthday!

Master, Happy Birthday!
