While other kids are going to the beach or the movies this summer, a group of friends from Sydney have given up part of their school holidays to travel the countryside raising awareness of the plight of orphans in China.
Hundreds of people from all circles and representatives from different groups in Sydney held a large parade and rally in downtown Sydney, celebrating the 14 million Chinese people quitting the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its affiliated organizations.
On October 4, 2006, Falun Gong practitioners from Sydney and Canberra started a van tour to clarify the truth of the persecution against Falun Gong to people in the small towns along the coast north of Sydney.
Falun Gong practitioners from Sydney assembled in front of City Hall to hold an activity to protest against Bo Xilai, the Chinese Minister of Commerce, and one of the main culprits in the persecution of Falun Gong.
Father John planned to write to the Prime Minister and tell his church members about the cruel persecution and call for signatures. On the first weekend of September, Father John asked church members to sit down after the service and told them about the tragedy of innocent Falun Gong practitioners in China.
Further support for an end to organ harvesting came in a statement this week referring to the Matas-Kilgour report, when the U.S. National Kidney Foundation said it “is deeply concerned about recent allegations regarding the procurement of organs and tissues through coercive or exploitative practices abroad, or practices which violate worldwide human rights standards.”
Two senior parliamentarians – one from Europe, the other from Canada – have called on the United Nations to investigate startling allegations that the Chinese government killed thousands of Falun Gong practioners and harvested their organs for sale.
The Australia-China human rights bilateral dialogue has completely failed to assist in lessening or ending this human rights atrocity.
“A call to stop organ harvesting from thousands of Falun Gong practitioners in China”. A press conference is to be held in Pitt Street, Martin Place, on Friday, 14 July.
A human rights lawyer and a former cabinet minister in Canada have added their weight to charges that China has been killing Falun Gong dissidents so it can use their organs. They provided English transcripts of phone calls, in Mandarin, made to detention centres and organ transplant clinics in which officials said organs from Falun Gong practitioners could be made available for speedy use.
