(Clearwisdom.net) The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has carried out the genocidal persecution of Falun Gong for seven years, and Singapore Falun Gong practitioners have also clarified the facts about Falun Gong to the local people for seven years. During these seven years, practitioners in Singapore have also had to face unfair treatment by the Singapore government, including unreasonable expulsion of Chinese Falun Gong practitioners, some government officials' irresponsible and libelous remarks on Falun Gong in the media, and Falun Gong practitioners' being charged with crimes for their truth-clarifying activities.
Following the news report in Lianhe Zaobao on the upcoming visit of Li Lanqing, head of the CCP's 610 Office at the invitation of Lee Kuan Yew on May 28, 2006, a series of incidents ensued in Singapore. The Singapore police confiscated truth-clarifying display boards and banners that Falun Gong practitioners used to clarify the facts in front of the Chinese Embassy, Waterloo Street, Raffles Places and other places. The Immigration and Checkpoint Authority (ICA) and Ministry of Manpower created difficulties for Chinese Falun Gong practitioners, and unreasonably expelled them. There were also three charges brought against the practitioners. Chinese practitioner Mdm Chen Peiyu, 73, was one of the three practitioners who were originally charged with "harassment for displaying insulting writings" in front of the Chinese Embassy, but the court suddenly withdrew the charge against her one week prior to the court trial. Her five-year long-term social visit pass (due to expire in 2010) was revoked, and she was expelled by the ICA. The Singapore authorities treated an older woman in her 70s so unreasonably just because she protested the CCP regime's persecution of Falun Gong and told people about the CCP's genocidal persecution of Falun Gong practitioners.
Falun Gong practitioner Ng Chye Huey said that Singapore is arbitrarily charging and detaining its citizens and expelling legal residents for the sake of its own interests and in order to curry favor with the CCP. It is a sorrow and shame of humanity. The CCP's genocidal persecution of Falun Gong concerns all of humanity. The CCP's atrocities of killing practitioners for their organs is trampling upon human beings' dignity. Regarding such heinous acts, everybody should take action on the basis of morality. How the world reacts is a measure of each person's morality and conscience.
Many police officers told practitioners when confiscating the display boards and banners that they did not want to do so, but they were ordered to do so.

The Singapore authorities should not get involved in the persecution of Falun Gong in order to curry favor with the CCP. Regarding the Singapore government's unreasonable expulsion of Chinese Falun Gong practitioners and leveling charges against its citizens, Singapore practitioners call on the government, international organizations, human rights organizations and kind-hearted people to give support and help so as to resolve the crisis in Singapore.
Through the Singapore practitioners' seven-year persistent truth clarification, many people in Singapore have seen the brutality of the persecution, and Falun Gong practitioners' peacefulness and compassion. They have also seen how some individuals in the Singapore government treat Falun Gong practitioners.
Unfair treatment imposed upon Falun Gong practitioners by the Singapore authorities include:
