Swedish Expert on Communism Expresses Hope That the Spectacular Will Be Seen by More People (Photo)

March 29, 2008

(Clearwisdom.net) The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has used many underhanded methods to try to stop the Divine Performing Arts from presenting the Chinese Spectacular around the world. This has only aroused the public's condemnation of the CCP and also brought more people to see the show. After the CCP's attempts to stop people from attending were exposed, the first performance of the Spectacular on March 20, 2008, in Sweden was particularly well attended.

A Swedish expert on communism hopes the Spectacular will be seen by more people

Anders Hjemdahl, the founder and deputy director of the Swedish 'Communism-related Historical Data Association,' a non-government organization specializing in identifying and disclosing the communist evil, attended the first Spectacular performance on March 20, 2008, and shared his opinion afterwards.

Mr. Hjemdahl said, 'This was a very beautiful and delightful performance, of which the most touching was 'The Risen Lotus Flower' about Falun Gong practitioners being arrested and detained. It made me realize that belief makes you stronger."

Regarding the CCP's attempts to interfere with the Spectacular, Mr. Hjemdahl, who has conducted in-depth investigations on communism, said, "Communism is the most evil thing in the world. It is the biggest disaster in mankind's history, and China is the place that has been the most seriously poisoned. It is an anti-human 'religion.' It is always destroying. The CCP should not exist, because it has no merit. Chinese people should enjoy freedom and democracy like people in other countries." He hoped that the Divine Performing Arts could be seen by more people.

Non-governmental organization: Display the real culture and history of China

Mr. Hjemdahl and his wife, Camilla Anderson, have set up a non-governmental organization called Communism Consultation (UOK), the aim of which is to let people know about the crimes that the Communist Party has committed. They attended the Spectacular with their two daughters. After the performance, they were very happy to accept interviews with journalists.


Camilla Anderson; her husband, Anders Hjemdah;l and their two daughters attended the first performance.

Ms. Anderson said, "This was a very good performance. I liked all of it, and I think it is very necessary that it is performed here, especially to let Western people understand what has happened in China and to let the Swedish people know how the CCP has destroyed Chinese traditional culture. This kind of performance is excellent. It was very important to display the behavior of the Communist Party; this correct information represents the persecution that is happening now."

Her husband stressed, "The show represents everything new and fresh with rich and colorful Chinese culture, rather than according with the Communist Party's ideology, which is stated in barren performances. It brought to life the real Chinese culture and history. We will help invite more MPs to come see it next year.'

The Divine Performing Arts on Tour still has five performances to give in Sweden, which will offer nearly ten thousand people the opportunity to enjoy the Spectacular's unique elegance.
