(Minghui.org) Falun Dafa practitioners held an Information Day in Grand Place (Square de L’Europe) in Brussels, Belgium on July 16, 2022. The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) began persecuting the spiritual practice in China 23 years ago, on July 20, 1999.

Practitioners introduced Falun Dafa and exposed the CCP’s persecution. In addition, practitioners also did the Dafa exercises, which attracted the attention of many passersby. Once they understood the atrocities happening to Falun Gong (also called Falun Dafa), they expressed their concern and support. Some also wanted to learn the exercises.

Young Man from Sichuan Province, China: I Admire Falun Dafa Practitioners’ Persistence

Mr. Wang Jingyu, a young man from Sichuan Province, China, said, “I’ve learned that the CCP persecutes Falun Dafa. I bypassed the Great Firewall of China and read the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party.”

He was well aware that the CCP persecutes innocent people with lies, deceit and violence. “Although I do not cultivate in Falun Dafa,” he said, “I know that Falun Dafa is a large enough entity to be able to stand against the CCP’s persecution. They are also bravely exposing the CCP’s evil nature, so people can learn the truth about Falun Dafa. For this, I truly admire practitioners’ persistence.”
