Malaysia Falun Gong Practitioner Passing
Memorandum to China Embassy
to appeal for ending to the persecution of Falun Gong
On June 24, 2004 – Four Malaysian Falun Gong
practitioners went to Malaysia China Embassy to pass a memorandum
to appeal for ending to the persecution of Falun Gong. Falun Gong
practitioners also requested meeting with the Ambassador of China,
His Excellency, Mr. Wang Chun Gui, but however was rejected.
Four of Falun Gong representatives only allowed passing
the memorandum through the window in front of the China Embassy and
to have a press conference for about 10 minutes to explain the persecution
condition of Falun Gong in China. This incident has attracted a lot
of reporters present to make coverage and listed practitioners explain
the persecution which happening in China. Falun Gong practitioners
also specially make a lot of banner to expose the crucial persecution
and to let the reporters well understand the truth of the persecution
during coverage.
Falun Gong practitioners mentioned in the press
conference that the main purpose of passing the memorandum is in hoping
that China embassy in Malaysia can contribute towards a peaceful end
to the brutal persecution of Falun Gong and an unconditional release
of those Falun Gong practitioners of conscience for peace, dignity
and better future of the Chinese civilization.
During this year February, news media spoke person of China embassy,
Sun Xiang Yan, published an article at a local Chinese newspaper Sin
Chew Jit Poh which in the article he has mentioned that Falun Gong
is a cult and spread untruth principal and asked reader to keep away
from Falun Gong. This article undoubtedly can make Malaysian misunderstand
even hate Falun Gong. Therefore, in the memorandum, Falun Gong practitioners
also appealed China ambassador to stop publishing reports and circulating
articles that aim to defame the image of Falun Gong. Falun Gong, which
expounds the principles of Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance,
requires practitioner think of about others before self and to be
a good people in every situation. Where is the ‘cult’
factor? The freedom of rights to association, expression and belief
is enshrined in the Malaysia Constitution. Therefore, Malaysian Falun
Gong practitioners as citizens of Malaysia have the right to use it.
In the mean time, practitioner also hoped that China Ambassador will
consider our appeal seriously and establish dialogues for us to have
a chance to meet with people in the embassy to clarify the truth to
them, stop assisting Jiang Zemin regime persecution action in oversea.
This passing memorandum incident make Malaysia practitioners have
more chance to clarify the truth to media, police and higher lever
of government officers and at the same time to let them have a chance
to know the wonderful of Falun Gong.
