On the 29th of October 2005, Falun Gong Practitioners from Frankfurt organised an information day in a city on the river Main. The reason for the activity was the visit of the State President of China in November. Signatures were collected, which were mailed to the Federal President Horst Köhler. We appealed to Mister Köhler to support the end of the persecution of Falun Gong in China.

The information stand was located at the beginning of the well known Fressgasse restaurant area which is located closely to the shopping centre of Goethe City. Many people walking by wanted to know about Falun Gong and the persecution in China. Numerous people from Frankfurt immediately signed the petitions, when it became clear to them what this was about. One gentleman said loudly to the practitioners: “Much success!”

A little girl wrote her name with the help of her mother on the petition form. A Yoga teacher was touched upon learning about the cruel persecution and almost cried. She took many flyers with her in order to inform her friends about the criminal actions of the Chinese Communist Party. When we started to pack up around 6 p.m., a German lady came by and brought us a cake. She had earlier talked for a long time with a practitioner and also signed the petition.
