(Clearwisdom.net) In the past month, information revealed by former Chinese officials and a diplomat raised great public concern over the persecution of Falun Gong. Taking this opportunity, practitioners in Canberra held several anti-torture exhibitions to expose the facts of the persecution and to clarify the truth of Falun Dafa. The result was very good. At the same time, practitioners noticed that many people still didn't know what Falun Gong is. Therefore, practitioners decided to hold a set of activities to promote Falun Gong and clarify the truth.
Practitioners first chose Queanbeyan, a small town in New South Wales (NSW) neighboring Canberra. With about 37,000 residents, it is one of the fastest growing cities in NSW. There were a set of procedures to get a permission to hold an event in the selected shopping center. With the practitioners' truth clarification, the manager soon approved the application and said that practitioners could distribute any materials they had.

On July 2, several practitioners came to the Queanbeyan shopping center. The practitioners' calligraphy demonstration and paper lotus folding activities attracted many people. The "Falun Gong Teaches Truthfulness Compassion and Tolerance" banner was very eye-catching, and the "Pudu" and "Jishi" music brought to the center a peaceful atmosphere. Following the exercise music, several practitioners in yellow suits demonstrated the exercises, forming a unique field in the center. Many people were attracted.
Some said that the practice was what they had been looking for, while others were outraged by CCP's brutal persecution of Falun Gong and the CCP' harassment of practitioners in Australia.

A little boy watched the practitioners' demonstration for a long time. He eventually started to learn the exercises. An elderly lady kissed a practitioner to express her sympathy and support. Another older gentleman watched practitioners for more than one hour in the morning and talked with practitioners. After he watched the practitioners' VCD at home, he came back to thank them for bringing this peaceful practice to Queanbeyan.
