(Minghui.org) Falun Gong practitioners in mid-Japan held a signature collection at Sakae in the heart of Nagoya City on April 23, 2023, exposing the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) persecution of Falun Gong, and commemorating the April 25 Appeal that happened in Beijing twenty-four years ago.

Many people were fascinated by the Falun Gong exercises. They signed the petition calling for an end to the CCP after being told about the CCP’s persecution of the peaceful traditional practice. They expressed deep concerns over the human rights situation in China, and wished to make a contribution to stop the persecution of Falun Gong.

Mr. Ikeda, a local resident, learned the first and second Falun Gong exercises during the event. He planned to come again to learn more of the exercises on upcoming weekends. 

Practitioners talk to people about Falun Gong.

Many young people signed the petition and told practitioners that they wished to see the CCP collapse, and they hoped that the persecution would end soon.

Many people encouraged practitioners to keep up with their great job in exposing the persecution in China. They wish to see the day when Falun Gong practitioners get their freedom in China. Many took Falun Gong informational materials to learn more. Some said that they loved the beautiful lotus flowers that practitioners gave them.

Mr. Duy, a Falun Gong practitioner from Vietnam, does the Falun Gong exercises.

Mr. Duy from Vietnam had gotten sick when working in Japan. After searching for information about Falun Gong on the Internet, he learned more about the practice. His health was restored after he began to practice Falun Gong. 

Mr. Duy told a reporter, “The CCP has deceived people and created a misunderstanding about Falun Gong. We are here to tell people the truth. Falun Gong teaches Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. The CCP has persecuted people who follow these great principles. It’s indeed wicked!”
