  • Revealing The Facts about So-Called "Civilised Reform" at the Guoyang Forced Labour Camp

  • Jealous Officials in Chengdu City Lead Police To Shoot at Dafa Practitioner

    Yang Yuanqiu, a Dafa practitioner from Shuangnian Village, Chengdu City, was the alternate supervisor of the village. Because Mr. Yang conducted himself according to the principles of "Truthfulness-Benevolence-Forbearance" he was an upright official. The party secretary of another village and that village supervisor were jealous of Yang Yuanqiu and feared him because of his righteous behaviour. They were afraid that the fact that they embezzled over 100,000 Yuan would be exposed. (note: An average urban worker's monthly wage in China is about 500 Yuan) So they staged an action to frame Yang Yuanqiu.
