>The following letter was sent to a Dutch Falun Gong practitioner by a representative of the Dutch Government.
Enclosed I send you the questions we raised during the weekly parliamentary debate with the Dutch Government.
The questions were raised by Dutch Parliament member Mr. Herben (of the LPF Party) to the Minister of Foreign Affairs concerning a secret concentration camp especially designed to hold Falun Gong adherents in China:
1. What is true of the reports (see for example http://www.theepochtimes.com/news/6-3-9/39083.html) that talk about a secret concentration camp, called Sujiatun, located in the Chinese city of Shenyang, Liaoning province, in which thousands of Falun Gong adherents are systematically being tortured, killed and removed of their organs?
2. Is the Dutch Government willing, potentially in the form of an international alliance, to plea for an independent investigation?
Is the Dutch Government willing, potentially in the form of an international alliance, to file a request with the Chinese authorities to have independent observers gain access to the above-mentioned camp as soon as possible?
3.Can you indicate how many Falun Gong adherents have already died due to the repression of the Chinese authorities?
Can you indicate how many Falun Gong adherents are missing?
Finally, can you indicate how many Falun Gong adherents are being held in prisons, forced labour camps, reeducation camps and psychiatric institutions?
4. Is the Dutch government, either alone or in the form of an international alliance, willing to take sanctions if above-mentioned reports on the Sujiatun Camp turn out to be true? If [the reports on Sujiatun are] not true, what is the Dutch government planning to do [about the persecution of Falun Gong adherents]? Is the government willing to summon the Chinese Ambassador for this?
5. What is true of the repeated reports (see for example http://www.theepochtimes.com/news/6-3-9/39083.html) that there is a wide China State-sponsored trade in organs of executed prisoners? What is the Dutch position on this? Are you willing to reveal this position to the Chinese authorities? If so, in what way?
