Radio Free Asia: Report on the Annual General Meeting of the International Human Rights Association in Germany On April 4th and 5th 2003, the International Human Rights Association in Germany held its Annual General Meeting. Two Falun Gong practitioners were invited to report on Chinas human rights situation. Two unanimous resolutions were reached which requested the German government to take any measure available to stop the Chinese regime from damaging human rights and persecuting Falun Gong. The following is an extract from a report by Tian Yi, special correspondent for Radio Free Asia:
Two practitioners, Wang Yuzhi from Canada and Dai Zhizhen from Australia, gave details of the brutal persecution of their families in China. On this information, the meeting passed a resolution on the human rights situation in China. Another resolution regarding the persecution of Falun Gong was also passed. The meeting requested the German government to take any necessary and effective measures to restrain the Chinese government from violating human rights and persecuting Falun Gong. The meeting also brought forward four requests. One of these requests was for the German government to keep an eye on the activities of the Chinese consular services in Germany. Another request was to ask the German government to condemn China at the human rights meeting held in Geneva, and to propose a resolution to condemn China for their human rights record. In conclusion, Zheng Zhi Hong commented that the two resolutions that were unanimously passed would be sent to the German government, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and all members of the German and European parliaments. The resolutions would also be sent to the relevant personnel and organisations at the human rights meeting held in Geneva, as well as relevant human rights and religious groups. German media will be notified of this event and the information will be made available to all concerned.
