(Clearwisdom.net) Recently a document marked "secret" was leaked from the Ziyang City Brainwashing Center in Sichuan Province. The document, "Rules and Regulations by the Ziyang City Authorities for Reform Through Education," is a collection of rules arranged in 13 sections. They include "Work Responsibilities of the Education and Research Team" at the brainwashing center, "Work Responsibilities of the Security Team," "Work Responsibilities of the Medical Team," "Work Responsibilities of the Aides and Companion Aides," "Security System," and "Standards of Reform through Education." This is significant written evidence of the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) in brainwashing centers.
So-called "reform through education centers" are actually brainwashing centers. They operate outside of the Chinese judicial system. The centers were specifically established to brainwash Falun Gong practitioners. These brainwashing centers, which are controlled by local "610 Offices," have been established throughout China. In almost every city, the CCP established brainwashing centers with names like "Holiday Villa" or "Legal Education Center" or "Legal Education School." Real life examples of Orwellian doublespeak, these names are carefully crafted to cover up the real purpose of the centers. The staff at the brainwashing centers deprive practitioners of their freedom and torture them physically and mentally. The Ziyang City Brainwashing Center is located on the shore of Er'e Lake between Ziyang City and Yingjie Township, in Yanjiang District, and was named "Er'e Lake Old People's Holiday Villa."
Since the brainwashing center is independent of the judicial system, its arbitrary rulings, covert operations and cruelty are rarely learned of beyond their walls. The secret document was leaked by a good-hearted person, and provides proof that within the centers there are different teams assigned to the persecution of practitioners, including the "Education and Research Team," "Security Team," "Medical Team," and so on. They have a clear division of labor and run a tight ship.
Please find below some of the sections the document contains.
1. To perform well and ensure the security as well as the monitoring of practitioners in accordance with the administrative requirements of the "standardization, para-militarization and science orientation." (Article 1 of the "Work Responsibilities of the Security Team")
2. To step up political and theoretical study to strengthen the confidence in the intensive assault -- plunge yourself into the education and reform work to fulfill the task of reform through education. (Article 2 of the "Work Responsibilities of the Aides and Companion Aides")
3. To persist in education by taking measures suited to each individual, based on the principle of one method for one individual in reforming the students. To draft a plan for assistance and education to assure the feasibility and practicality of the reform through education. (Article 6 of the "Work Responsibilities of Aides and Companion Aides")
4. To comply with security regulations, the aides and companion aides must not bring any educational materials into the students' cell, must not place any secret documents on the table, must not discuss in the students' room any issues related to the work at the reform through education center, must not receive or make phone calls in the students' cell, must not disclose any information of this directive to the outside world, must not provide any means of communication or transportation to the students, must not photo-copy or furnish any documents or materials on assistance and education work without permission. (Article 2 of the "Work Discipline of the Aides and Companion Aides")
5. Strict control measures. The aides and companion aides must design a reasonable on-duty plan that includes monitoring the students around the clock. All students must be within view or control at all times. Everyone must stop the students from doing exercises or making noises in their rooms. The aides and companion aides must do a good job during shift transfers. There must be at least one aide in the office at all times. There cannot be any discontinuance of the surveillance. (Article 4 of the "Work Discipline of the Aides and Companion Aides")
6. No one may reveal this directive to the public. No one may disclose the working methods and policies, addresses or contact information to unauthorized people, or speak of the organization and administration or the education and daily life of the students. (Article 4 of the "Security Regulations")
The document states that the "Standards of Reform through Education" are based on the standards in reforming Falun Gong practitioners developed by 610 Office staff from the central government. The main purpose is forcing the practitioners to give up their beliefs. Below are some of the directives:
1. The practitioners must write and hand in what they have gained from studying the Falun Gong principles regularly and give true accounts of one's personal cultivation, as well as how he/she participated in the Falun Gong activities. (Article 1 of the "Standards of Reform Through Education")
2. Practitioners must pledge in writing to publicly make a clean break from Falun Gong. (Article 2 of the "Standards of Reform Through Education")
3. Practitioners must guarantee not to practice the exercises, not to do the sitting meditation and not to chant (recite) Buddhist scriptures. (Article 3 of the "Standards of Reform Through Education)
4. Practitioners must hand in all Falun Gong materials and share what they know about the Falun Gong activities. (Article 4 of the "Standards of Reform through Education)
5. Practitioners must persuade staff of the student's true intent by citing one's experience in reforming other Falun Going practitioners. (Article 5 of the Standards of Reform Through Education")
6. Practitioners must criticize Falun Gong in public... (Article 6 of the "Standards of Reform Through Education")
We note that the evildoers want the students to"make a clean break" and "confess without being prompted," betray their friends, and also "persuade other practitioners to give up Falun Gong" by citing ones so-called experience. This is to help the evildoers commit crimes. The activities to "reform" practitioners are relentless and don't stop until they have "reformed" good people into bad people.
7. Practitioners must respect the hard work of the aides and companion aides, no one may have a conflict or argue with or take drastic actions against them. (Article 2 of the "Students Rules and Regulations")
