(Clearwisdom.net) On June 14, 2008, at the Swedish "Service Center for Quitting the Chinese Communist Party" in Stockholm, Falun Gong practitioners held an assembly to support the 38 million Chinese people who have quit the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its affiliated organizations. They also raised awareness about how the CCP has tried to divert attention from the fact that it ignored predictions of the Sichuan earthquake. Chinese political secretary Zhou Yongkang personally deployed overseas CCP consulates and Communist Party supporters in America, inciting Chinese people who did not know the facts to abuse, assault and beat volunteer workers at the Flushing Service Center for Quitting the Chinese Communist Party in New York.
Volunteer workers for the service center and volunteers for the The Epoch Times, as well as Falun Gong practitioners from the periphery towns of Stockholm all attended this event.
The weather on this day was cool, and from time to time it would rain a bit, but this didn't affect the service center volunteer workers and Falun Gong practitioners from introducing the "Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party" editorial to the Chinese tourists. The Nine Commentaries explores the relationship between China and the CCP, with the goal of encouraging Chinese people to quickly quit the CCP and its affiliated organizations.
MP Cecilia Wigstrom said in an interview that more and more Chinese people are breaking through the information blockade to obtain information and the wave of quitting the CCP is displaying the Chinese peoples' desire for liberty and democracy. Ms. Wigstrom also said, "More and more people are quitting the party, enabling more and more people to learn what democracy is, and what human rights are. People in democratic countries live much better, and the people enjoy much more freedom and happiness. I hope that it (the wave of quitting the CCP) will advance with steady steps."
Many display boards in different languages were placed at the scene of the activity. They silently told the people about how, from the formation of the CCP to today, it has still been committing the sins of persecuting kind and innocent civilians. The loudspeaker was broadcasting non-stop the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party recording. Three Westerners from the "Service Center for Quitting the Chinese Communist Party," Jorgen, Jens, and Tobias spoke at the activity, introducing people to the service center and presenting information about the Chinese people quitting the communist party.
Tobias, who was well versed in Chinese, continued to use Chinese to explain to the Chinese people at the scene, calling on the Chinese people to quit the CCP and its associated organizations.
As pedestrians passed by, many slowed down to listen earnestly, and some examined the display boards, carefully looking at them. Some immediately read the flyers they received, and some spoke with practitioners. Two families who lived in Stockholm continuously gave a thumbs-up and said to practitioners, "You are doing really great, keep up the good work."
Three people who had just come from China, along with some younger people working in Sweden, each received the Nine Commentaries and The Epoch Times, and spoke with practitioners. They said they saw through the CCP and wanted no part of it. But they felt indifferent about quitting the Communist Youth League and the Young Pioneers. They were already over age and felt as if it didn't matter. When it was explained clearly to them how it affected their vital interests, they very happily decided to quit. They even continuously thanked the volunteers.
There was also a young person from Chifeng City in Inner Mongolia, who accepted the Nine Commentaries and an Epoch Times newspaper, and carefully placed them in to his plastic bag, afraid that it would get soaked by the rain, and even said happily to a practitioner, "The last time I went to Germany I saw the Falun Gong practitioners march for quitting the CCP, and also saw many banners reading "Falun Dafa Hao (Falun Dafa is good)." To see so many more people quitting the CCP today made him very happy. As a matter of fact his mother was also a Falun Gong practitioner. He took a photo of the quitting the CCP gathering, with the banners and displays, and said that he wanted to take them home to show his mother. He also said that when he returned to the guest house he would go to the quitting the CCP site on the Da Ji Yuan (Chinese version of The Epoch Times) website, and quit the Communist Youth League that he was once part of.
A Chinese woman married to a Swede was very shocked upon seeing the quitting the CCP activities, and was also a little worried. She couldn't imagine what China would be like if the CCP collapsed. A volunteer at the service center introduced the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party to her, and described the CCP's conduct during the earthquake, and in the end she said that she believed China would be better without the CCP. She took a Nine Commentaries and an Epoch Times newspaper and happily left.
A young female university student from Sichuan was going home the next day, and really didn't quite understand the quitting the CCP activities here. She took some photos of some scenes, one of which was a photo of a Chinese student, and threatened to post it on a website in China. She thought doing this would show "love of the country." When Falun Gong practitioner Xiao Lu saw this situation, she hastily went forward, and spent over an hour patiently clarifying the truth to her, helping her to clearly distinguish the relationship between the CCP and China, using many true stories to help her, and enable her to distinguish the evil nature of the CCP. In the end this university student changed her mind about posting the photo. She said that she would delete it, and not place it on the website. She also accepted that the activity and the volunteers were in fact displaying love for the country.
At four o'clock in the afternoon when the activity was coming to a close, all the Chinese materials had been handed out. There were also many Swedish and English versions of the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party that were handed out. Although they braved the rain and everyone worked hard, when they saw that so many people clearly learned of the CCP evilness, and came to a clear understanding of the truth, everyone was fully gratified.
Finally Jorgen, the chairman of the Swedish Service Center for Quitting the Chinese Communist Party said, "Helping the Chinese people quit the CCP and its affiliated organization is a global activity. We will continuously put forth the best effort to enable more Chinese people to distinguish clearly the evil nature of the CCP, and to quickly quit the evil CCP."
