The boat left Malaysia bound for New Zealand last month, but were picked up by the Australians after they issued a distress call. The people claim to be members of the Chinese persecuted Falun Gong spiritual group.
Chinese asylum seekers moored in Darwin and intent on continuing to New Zealand without following proper process need to be told don't bother, ACT Leader John Banks says. Latest reports suggest the Chinese may now seek asylum in Australia rather than New Zealand.
I'm being very cautious about commenting on the 10 Chinese Falun Gong asylum-seekers who were the cause of much transtasman consternation this week. The last time I criticised the Falun Gong - for wanting to join the Santa Parade - there was a protest outside the ZB building that went on for weeks.
As soon as I saw this in our mailbox today, it reminded me of something I’d read in the news a couple years ago. A certain religious group in China, famous for being brutally persecuted by the gov’t in the late 90′s, was apparently squandering Western public sympathy by selling tickets to Chinese cu...
Yes the commercials I saw on TV were definitely misleading. But I can also see why they wouldn't show that kind of stuff. They want people to come to the show. I see where you are torn because this is not how we want to raise our Chinese daughters, nor do we want them to believe that all Chinese peo...
Anyways, the Falun Gong apparently took this golden opportunity to put up a little poster montage espousing the virtues of their art and the evils of the Chinese gov't. No, I'm not kidding. Yes, I'm serious. To add to that, they had the audacity to set up camp on the Diag, which is tread upon by app...
American Falun Gong backbone Wu Kailun died of illness, according to the overseas forum website Ddhw.com. The forum of Physics Department of Peking University, which Wu was ever in, confirmed his death.
For some reasons, Falun Gong is almost like our perform of Scientology. It has taken root in a lot of powerful, influential people, especially professors in very high levels in china. For whatever reason, they just really drawn into it. I think part of it is a sort of anti-Chinese government movemen...
On the morning of January 21, 2011, Kaiwind’s reporter visited Xue Hongjun, one of the plotters as well as organizers of the Tian’anmen Square self-immolation incident which took place on January 23rd, 2001.
Ge Cuidi, former head of the Falun Gong Institution Center in Pinghu and also relative of Ye Hao, a core figure of Falun Gong, died of breast cancer in Pinghu of eastern China’s Zhejiang Province, on the evening of February 11, 2012.
The 2012 March showing of Shen Yun in Minneapolis was a slap in the face to the true spirit of the performing arts. It was nothing but a cult propaganda and a rip-off via false adverstisments. It was obvious that Shen Yun was using the arts as a front for their propaganda.
If you had an access to the cult group of Falun Gong, you would be strongly impressed by the bigotry that characterizes its members. They often behave in an unreasonable manner. Making an insight into the group, we can find that a high level of uniformity of bigotry features all its members. The aut...
A lot of Falun Gong practitioners had been bereft of reason and paid no regard to familial affections. And this had led to countless tragedies. Nowadays most of them have broken away from the trap of Falun Gong and start to live a new life. Looking back on their appalling experiences, they gave self...
There were some disappointments, due in part to our lack of research before attending and our erroneous expectations of what the performance would and would not involve. Having seen other Chinese troupes, we had looked forward to more daring acrobatic feats and technically challenging adagio partner...
First was a peddler for the Epoch Times in a market near Ueno Station. She was there distributing copies of a Chinese language version of the Epoch Times paper. People mostly ignored her, except for the occasional takers. Since I had some time before catching a bullet train to Narita, I thought a co...
