Zhongbo Wang performs the exercise of this cultivation practice. Should he return to China he will be under threat of torture or murder

It appears to be harmonious and peaceful when Zhongbo Wang and his friends are practicing Falun Gong exercises in the park. Yet, the Chinese regime is mortally afraid of this. Since 1999, it persecutes and murders practitioners of this meditation movement.

He is a cook in a restaurant. His short-term German work permit is going to expire soon. Therefore, he applied for asylum without success. "I arrived in Germany about six years ago to earn money for my family," explained the thirty six year old. "I found a job as a cook with the help of an agency, everything was legal."

This Chinese man worked relentlessly. After two years his shoulder and neck suffered from stress and the pain was unbearable, said Wang. The doctor couldn't help me. There was nothing that made me feel better," said Wang. At that time he thought of his father. He also had practiced the exercises of Falun Gong to escape from the pain many years ago. He explained that at that time Falun Gong was not banned yet.

Wang joined a Falun Gong group. After practicing for a while the pain lessened more and more. After some time, Wang also began to take an interest in the moral and ethical side the practice espouses.

Practitioners live by the principles of Truthfulness, Compassion and Tolerance. At the same time he met his friend Zhen, who already practiced Falun Gong and was imprisoned in a slave labour camp for not renouncing this practice. He suffered torture and has to live now with a chronic hip injury and can't walk without crutches.

Zhongbo Wang was shocked. He began to take part in information activities and severely criticised the uncountable human rights violations perpetrated in his homeland. Then, he committed a tactical error, "I wrote to my wife and daughter about four times letters about practicing Falun Gong," said Wang. It clearly shows that he is contrite about this and appears to regret his actions even today. "My family never received these letters. The Chinese post office opened the letters and kept them," said Wang.
The family man is certain that the regime is just waiting to get him into their clutches. He was quite frightened and therefore applied with a heavy heart for asylum in 2004.

Also, it would be almost like a permanent separation from his family if Wang remains in Germany. As of now, Zhongbo Wang does not know what the future holds for him. His asylum request was denied. Wang is appealing and the administrative tribunal of Minden will decide if Wang has to return to China.
