Ever since the violent crimes of the CCP
harvesting
Falun Dafa practitioners' organs and cremating their bodies for profit
was
exposed in the media, Falun Dafa practitioners in the United Stated
have been
writing or faxing letters to President Bush. They call on President
Bush to help
the international community investigate all CCP labor camps and
prisons, to stop
the killing and all other kinds of brutal persecution.
Below is one letter that was written to President Bush by a Falun Dafa
practitioner in the U.S. We have posted it here for fellow
practitioners to use
as a reference when calling the President's hotline, or when faxing or
modifying
letters to Congressmen, City Councilors, etc. We can call for help at
all
different levels of the government, and invite all government officials
to voice
our concerns to the President, asking him to take action. We can also
ask our
friends and families to sign their names, and we can fax the letters to
the
White House for them.
Note: The White House measures public opinion, to some degree at least, by the volume of requests received by fax and telephone each day. We hope that all Falun Dafa practitioners in the United States will send faxes or letters, or call the hotline to leave a message to President Bush. We can also collect petitions, so that we can send out a strong enough voice.
The letter that follows can be used once you fill in your name, title and contact information.

Dear President Bush,Recent reports have revealed several concentration camps in China where tens of thousands of Falun Gong practitioners are being held and face possible death--this is an urgent situation that requires attention from the international community, especially the United States.
According to multiple sources, concentration camps similar to the one in Sujiatun, Shenyang, have been set up in provinces across China to detain large numbers of Falun Gong practitioners. In those camps, the authorities have been harvesting the organs of practitioners while they are still alive and cremating the remains to destroy the evidence, then selling the organs for profit. Clearwisdom.net and The Epoch Times exposed these atrocities to the world in early March, and within three weeks, before Chinese officials addressed the issue to foreign media, the practitioners held in underground concentration camp in Sujiatun had been quickly relocated.
According to tips from Mainland China and different investigations, the Chinese communist regime hastily published the "Interim Regulation for Human Organ Transplant Practice" after the Sujiatun concentration camp was exposed. However, the regulation will not take effect until July 1, 2006, and thus we suspect the regime was allowing time to destroy all evidence of the crimes. Investigations have confirmed that hospitals and transplant centers in Tianjin, Heilongjiang, Hunan, Shanghai, Zhejiang, Yunnan, Anhui, Shan'xi, Xinjiang and etc. are operating overtime to perform transplant operations. Hospital staff members told undercover investigators that patients should come in quickly if they want a transplant, as the hospital can find matching organs in as short as one or two days and it will be difficult after this batch of organs is used up. This information, supported by multiple investigations, leads to one conclusion: A slaughter to eliminate witnesses and victims of the concentration camps is underway. Because of this urgent situation, the Falun Dafa Association has initiated IGFG (Investigate Genocide of Falun Gong in China) where many credible organizations have been and will be invited to join, aiming to go to China to perform an independent investigation of the persecution of Falun Gong in all the labor camps, jails, hospitals and relevant facilities.
After World War II, the international community deeply regretted its failure to stop the Holocaust and solemnly promised "Never Again." We urgently ask you to take immediate action and activate all possible mechanisms to stop this new genocide in Mainland China. In particular, the U.S. government owns satellites that can provide information on the past and present activities in the concentration camps and labor camps etc.
In
the meantime, we know that you are meeting with Hu Jintao later this
month. We hope that you can bring up the following points:
1. Open up all of China's labor camps/jails/hospitals for international
investigation.
2. Allow IGFG to go into China and research the facts of the
persecution of Falun Gong.
We believe such requests are fair, just, necessary, and urgent considering the current situation. Every minute of delay will result in irremediable loss of innocent lives and will be a disgrace to the human race!
Sincerely,

On April 12, 2006, Falun Gong practitioners in Singapore continued to display their picture boards and banners on Waterloo Street in the busy business district of Singapore. They exposed the large-scale murder and live-harvesting of Falun Gong practitioners' organs by the CCP in forced labor camps in China.
People read display boards about the persecution.
In the past two weeks, Singapore police confiscated Falun Gong display boards four times at different places under the excuse of "no permit." April 12 happened to be the 15th on the lunar calendar, and many people went to Kuan Im Tng Temple. At 10:40, Falun Gong practitioners started their truth-clarification activity as usual. Pretty soon, seven or more plain-clothes policemen appeared. They took videos of Falun Gong practitioners and took away their display boards after 11a.m. Falun Gong practitioners continued to distribute their flyers and quickly made some new boards.
Around 3 p.m., these plain-clothes policemen came again. Falun Gong practitioners talked with them again and pointed out their unfairness. Many vendors and street artists gather at Kuan Im Tng Temple. It is a district that doesn't require permits. In addition, the CCP's crimes are such a terrible and urgent matter. How could they stop an activity calling for saving lives? The policemen eventually left. Falun Gong practitioners continued their activity.
People asked what had happened. An elderly lady couldn't read, but she wondered what had happened and if she could donate some money to help. Another one said, "God will bless you." He asked if Falun Gong practitioners could teach his child how to do Falun Gong exercises. Many people took this opportunity to read the displays and take truth-clarification materials. A Chinese person who used to refuse to hear about the persecution, greeted Falun Gong practitioners with a smile.
It has been more than one month since the crimes of organ harvesting in the Chinese Communist Party's concentration camps were exposed in the media. A military doctor from the Shenyang Military Zone disclosed that there are 36 similar concentration camps across China. Similar crimes of live organ removal and cremating bodies to destroy evidence occur in many prisons, labor camps, hospitals and related facilities in China. Many practitioners face the danger of organ removal and cremation.
Practitioners in Canada spread the facts of the persecution with various means and urgently call on the international community to investigate all labor camps, prisons, and concentration camps in China, and to stop the CCP's unlawful imprisonment and persecution of Falun Gong practitioners.
Appeal in front of the Office of Member of Parliament
Since Monday, April 10, practitioners in Toronto have appealed and collected signatures in front of the district office of Bill Graham, former Minister of Foreign Ministry and head of the Freedom Party, and the district office of Jack Layton, head of the New Democracy Party. They urged the Canadian Government to stand up to condemn the CCP's atrocities of removing organs from living people in labor camps and start an immediate investigation.
Canadian citizen Michelle Zhang said, "My sister Yunhe Zhang was abducted four years ago by police for practicing Falun Gong and her whereabouts have not been known since then. The police station, labor camps, and prisons all deny her presence. My family worries that she might have been killed or that she faces the danger of organ removal."
A majority of people knowing the truth came forward to sign the petition to urge the MP of their district to put forward a motion in parliament to stop the persecution of Falun Gong. Many people were shocked at the persecution and asked how to help the practitioners.
Ms. Jennifer Story, Assistant of MP Jack Layton and Mr. Bill Graham, secretary of Jack Layton accepted a petition letter and assured practitioners that they would transfer the letter to the MPs.
Car tour to call on governments and people to help stop the persecution of Falun Gong

The SOS car tour finished visiting mayors' offices and MPs in 18 cities in the mid-west of Ontario Province and started to visit cities in eastern portion this week.
On Monday, April 10, the car tour visited five cities of Pickering, Ajax, Whitby, Oshawa and Bowmanville, and five MPs, including two ministers, three members of Provincial Parliament and two mayors' offices along the way. The Mayor and Council Member attended the press conference in front of Oshawa city hall. Regarding the atrocity of organ removal, Mayor John Gray said it could not be accepted and everyone had the responsibility to stop the atrocities wherever they were. He said that he would discuss the issue at a city council meeting and have a resolution passed to urge the Canadian Federal Government to pay attention to the matter.
In talking about how the Canadian people can help stop the CCP's concentration camps, City Council Member Louise Parkes said the Canadian Government should invite independent organizations to investigate the CCP's concentration camps. If verified, the CCP regime should cooperate with the international community to solve the issue. There is freedom of belief in Canada and such freedom should be brought to China.
The car tour visited three cities of Cobourg, Belleville and Napanee, three mayors' offices, three members of provincial parliament and two MPs. The vice mayor of Cobourg accepted the practitioners' petition materials and had a group photo with the practitioners by local media.
The car tour collected many signatures calling on Canadian government to take immediate action to stop the persecution of Falun Gong. They visited 9 governmental officials and accepted interviews from six media.
Ms. Guo, a coordinator for the SOS car tour said, "The car tour travels the main cities in Ontario province to let more people know about the brutal persecution of Falun Gong in China, to urge the international community to take immediate action, and to rescue those practitioners facing organ removal and cremation in China."
On April 8, 2006, practitioners from Vancouver held a "Great Wall of Truth" activity in Richmond to condemn the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)'s killing of Falun Gong practitioners and the atrocities of live organ removal, and called on all circles to stand up to stop the persecution.
The practitioners, wearing white or dark clothes with white flowers, lined up along both sides of 3rd street and displayed photos, posters, and banners. The banners were worded "SOS: 36 Death Camps in China, Ruthless Communist regime profiting by removing organs from live humans", "Strongly condemn CCP's atrocities of live organ removal and cremation of practitioners' bodies in concentration camp", "Stop the genocide, stop harvesting organs from Falun Gong practitioners", and "Falun Dafa is great".
Falun Gong practitioners distributed handouts and collected signatures at intersections to call for the Canadian Government to condemn the CCP's bloody crimes, establish an investigation team and help end the CCP's atrocities.
Falun Gong spokesperson Ms. Ying Li said, "We are holding the 'Great Wall of Truth' activity in Richmond, which has a large Chinese population, to help people understand the inhuman atrocities taking place in China. Concentration Camps secretly imprison Falun Gong practitioners and harvest organs from living humans for profit. After the exposure of the CCP's Sujiatun Concentration Camp, the CCP is relocating evidence and killing witnesses."
"According to information from China, hospitals in at least 8 provinces are working overtime to conduct organ transplantation. We are worried that in the next few months, the CCP will hasten the killing of Falun Gong practitioners imprisoned in secret concentration camps and labor camps at the provincial and city-level."
"We are here today so that all people will know about the crimes in the Sujiatun Concentration Camp. It is a portion of the CCP's persecution of Falun Gong. Similar crimes are occurring in many jails, labor camps, hospitals and related facilities in China. The crimes are still going on in some locations in secret. We urge parliament to investigate and we call on the Canadian people to help end the CCP's crimes. Especially those who are going to China to have organ transplants, please ask about the source of the organs."
A former Amnesty International staff member talked with a practitioner for quite a while. He said that Chinese products were so cheap and that no one knew what happened in China. Everyone knows the poor record of China on human rights, but what has the international community done? Far less than necessary.
An older man said, "There are CCP spies in our senior's activity center. They ask us not to believe The Epoch Times' exposure of the CCP's concentration camp. I told everyone, I came back from China recently. I know it is true. I read the newspaper everyday. I put it back after reading it to have more people know the facts. You must keep going."
An older lady from Sichuan told a practitioner on site, "I have read the Nine Commentaries from the Epoch Times. I experienced every event mentioned in the commentaries."
A young man passed by with his baby and signed his name and his baby's name. He said, "For both of us."
A candidate for the New Democracy Party in the city told a practitioner, "The CCP has an investment in Winnipeg. Do you know why they invest there? Because there is no people from your group. You should have a car tour to spread the facts and let everyone know it."
A local resident and his wife were shocked after learning about the CCP's persecution of Falun Gong practitioners and live organ removal for profit. They stayed quite a while and volunteered to hold banners.
He said, "As a Canadian citizen, I can have my own belief. Human rights are the basic rights for life no matter where you live. I come from Jewish community. My grandfather's family were all killed by Nazis. The CCP regime persecutes its own citizens inhumanely. I hope that the UN and all people around the world work together to stop the atrocities."
He said he would post the facts on a Jewish website and call the member of Parliament in his district, because it is not only China's issue, but an issue of all mankind and all of society.
Practitioner Tian said that some people were indifferent. "Do you like to know what is happening in China?" "No." "Would you like to help stop crimes?" "No." Tian is not discouraged but told the reporter, "We only want people to know the facts of the persecution. We came here to save these indifferent people."
Since the exposure of live organ removal in the Sujiatun Concentration Camp, practitioners in Vancouver have held poster exhibits and signature collection activities many times in front of the art museum, in Chinatown and so on.
In the evening, the practitioners held a candlelight vigil in the rain in front of the Chinese Consulate in Vancouver to commemorate their fellow practitioners tortured to death by the CCP.
On April 8, 2006, Falun Gong practitioners assembled at the busy Puerta del Sol in the city center in Spain to protest the Chinese Communist Party's (CCP) brutal behavior of setting up concentration camps to torture Falun Gong practitioners to death, extracting their organs while they're alive, cremating their bodies, and to support 9.5 million people quitting the CCP.

Signing to support practitioners against persecution
Puerta del Sol was busier and more lively than usual. People were busy buying merchandises for the coming Easter, and also many tourists from foreign countries had started their Easter holidays ahead of time. Puerta del Sol was full of people. When the banners written both in Chinese and Spanish "Strongly protest the CCP torturing Falun Gong practitioners to death, harvesting their organs, and cremating the bodies to remove the evidence", "Support 9.5 million people withdrawing from the CCP" were unfolded, the tourists immediately came. When people looked at the pictures depicting the violence of the CCP cruelly persecuting Falun Gong practitioners, they showed serious and angry faces instead of their joyful laughter and relaxed faces. People were furious over this miserable incident, that this could still be happening in the 21st century. Some people couldn't stand is and shouted aloud against the CCP's violence. Many people came to sign their names supporting Falun Gong. Some people specially came to shake hands with Falun Gong practitioners to express their sincere respects and firm support to those Falun Gong practitioners, who persist in their beliefs and still protest peacefully in the harsh environment under the CCP tyranny.
After understanding this miserable persecution which is still happening in China, two travelers from the USA said: "This is too terrible! We must tell this to our reporter friends in the USA, and they will definitely help to unveil this matter."
A lady from Madrid is a member of Spain's Protestant churches. She said they would hold a parade and demonstration to protest the CCP's persecution of Christians in China. She asked for the practitioners' contact information and hoped they could parade and protest the persecution against the religions and beliefs by the CCP together with Falun Gong practitioners.
After seeing the pictures and flyers, a nearly 80-year-old man said with anger: "Wherever the CCP comes, there will be terror and disasters. I hope the CCP vanishes from the earth forever!"
Among the crowd wanting to understand the truth, there were tourists from China as well as the local Chinese people. Although a man from China was not willing to express his opinion due to the reason known by everyone, he still could not bear it and said "The CCP is just a robber" in a low voice. This disclosed the Chinese people's repugnant attitude toward the evil CCP.
April is the rainy season in Spain. It was cloudy when we arrived at Puerta del Sol in the morning. When the activities were nearly over, it became shiny, and the bright sunshine warmed Puerta del Sol. A girl who was studying in a university in Madrid, after understanding the truth, said: "Don't give up. As long as you persist, justice will return to the people, just like the sun."
On the morning of April 10, 2006, Falun Gong practitioners in Japan held a rally in front of the Parliament Building to call on the Japanese Parliament to help investigate the killings of Falun Gong practitioners in the Chinese Communist Party's (CCP's) concentration camps and forced labor camps. Practitioners urged Parliament to help stop the atrocity of harvesting organs from live Falun Gong practitioners.
In a chilly wind, Falun Gong practitioners appeal to the Japanese Parliament to investigate the CCP's atrocities
The Chinese Communist Party's persecution of Falun Gong has lasted nearly seven years. Illegal imprisonment, brainwashing, slavery, torture, sexual attacks, murder and organ-harvesting on live people are taking place in China's forced labor camps and concentration camps. To call on the government to help investigate the CCP's atrocities, Falun Gong practitioners have been appealing at the parliament building since March 8, when the Sujiatun Concentration Camp was first exposed in the media.
On April 10, about 30 Falun Gong practitioners appealed at the parliament. Around 11:00 a.m., a tour bus arrived. Many tourists had materials with the "Shan Xi Travel" logo. They were in formal western suits and looked like Chinese government officials. Ms. Cai, who was appealing at the parliament, said that when she approached one middle-aged man to give him a copy of the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party CD, he suddenly got very angry and grabbed her and started to pull her toward the bus. Ms. Cai spoke to the Chinese people on the bus loudly, "The Chinese Communist Party has killed countless Chinese people, now people are quitting the CCP. This is Japan, how dare you be so lawless overseas?" The people on the bus were shocked by her words. The man let go of her and boarded the bus in a despondent attitude.
Ms. Tanaka works in a hospital in Tokyo. She said that there was a "Human Body Specimen Exhibition" going on in Yokohama City. These bodies came from China and it is possible that some of them were bodies of murdered Falun Gong practitioners. Two years ago, the Body Exhibition advertised heavily in hospitals in Japan. Ms. Tanaka urged the Japanese government to investigate the horror behind the Body Exhibition and asked people to clearly recognize the Chinese Communist Party's inhuman actions.
Recently, many representatives from different areas came to the Parliament Building. People saw the pictures of the CCP persecuting Falun Gong and stopped to ask for more materials. A woman from Nagasaki City was very surprised. She said, "This is horrible. This is not human. It's demonic behavior. (We) can't allow the Chinese Communist Party to despise human life like this." A man accompanying her said sincerely, "I support you. I will tell about this to my friends who work in the Chinese Embassy." People signed their names on the anti-persecution petition form. They also took many flyers and said they wanted to let more friends to know about this.
