(Clearwisdom.net) On April 24, Falun Dafa practitioners gathered outside the Chinese Consulate in Osaka to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the April 25th Appeal, raise awareness of the persecution, and call upon Chinese inside the consulate to renounce the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).

In the past 10 years, regardless of weather conditions, Mr. Katayama and Ms. Basyo have come to the Chinese consulate every day to clarify the truth of Falun Dafa. Their perseverance has touched many local residents and police officers. According to a police officer, he learned the truth from them and fully respects all Falun Dafa practitioners. This officer also said that some officials in the consulate were reading Falun Dafa truth-clarifying materials and their attitudes had changed.

During the rally, Ms. Naoyuki read a statement which urged all consulate staff members to read the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party and renounce it as soon as possible. "There are more than 53 million Chinese people who have formally quit the CCP and you must know that this evil regime is against humanity. For your own future welfare, you should make your own choice now."

When the practitioners concluded the rally, police officials on duty encouraged the practitioners by saying, "Keep it up."
