Ireland: Practitioners Celebrate World Falun Dafa Day in Dublin
By an Irish practitioner Accompanied by the beautiful music of “Falun Dafa Is Good”, a Falun Gong parade slowly made its way through the centre of Dublin, where many passers-by slowed down to look at the performances and take pictures. The parade came to an end in O'Connell Street, which is the most famous and busiest street in Dublin where many Chinese people congregate.
Practitioners proceeded with a series of celebration programmes including the demonstration of the five sets of Falun Gong exercises, performances of waist drumming and traditional Chinese dancing, a choir performance, etc. The parade and performances were highly acclaimed by the public with hearty applause.
Since former Chiense leader Jiang Zemin and the Chinese communist regime initiated this brutal persecution against Falun Gong in 1999, through practitioners’ persistent peaceful campaigns against the persecution, more and more people have come to know the facts about the persecution and started to practise Falun Gong. In Ireland, the number of Falun Gong practitioners has doubled. In the meantime, more and more righteous voices from the society and government sources have increased the call for an immediate end to this persecution.
