(Minghui.org) To commemorate the 20th anniversary of the April 25th peaceful appeal in Beijing, Falun Gong practitioners are holding events worldwide. They raise awareness of the Chinese Communist Party's (CCP) persecution of Falun Gong, including the CCP's state-sanctioned organ harvesting from living practitioners. They also talk about the 330 million Chinese people who have withdrawn from the CCP and its youth organizations.

He indicated that people born in Taiwan are happy to have freedom of belief, and enjoy human rights. He said everyone must cherish this hard-won freedom of belief and human rights.

Hualien County Councilor Chuang Chi-cai spoke of the CCP’s threat to Taiwan by invading it with their military, which brings fear to the people of Taiwan.
He said that the CCP has persecuted Falun Gong in China for 20 years, and is known for its state-sanctioned organ harvesting from living Falun Gong practitioners. Such atrocities cannot be tolerated. He called on Taiwan’s leaders to pay attention to such issues. People from all walks of life should stand up to condemn the CCP’s human rights abuses and jointly end the persecution.
