(Clearwisdom) Yeni Aktuel (New Modern Times) is one of the oldest and most popular magazines in Turkey. An article introducing Falun Gong and telling about the persecution in China in great detail was published in the April issue.
文章在介绍法轮功时写道：以“真、善、忍”为法理的法轮大法（又称法轮功），是植根于中国古老传统的一种修炼体系。一九九二年五月由李洪志大师首次公开传出后，在短短七年的时间里，中国学炼法轮功的人数就超过了七千万。法轮功使众多修炼者身体得到了康健，心灵得到了净化，道德得到了提升。
The reporter interviewed several local Falun Gong practitioners. The article noted: “Falun Dafa, also called Falun Gong, is an ancient Chinese cultivation practice based on the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. Mr. Li Hongzhi introduced it to public in May 1992. In seven years, more than 70 million people joined the practice, and benefited from it both physically and mentally.”
文章指出，由于法轮功在祛病健身方面的神奇功效，以及在社会整体道德提升方面所起到的促进作用，中国政府曾一度对法轮功给予肯定和支持，法轮功创始人也曾多次获得赞誉和褒奖。
The article pointed out that the Chinese government used to support Falun Gong and issued several awards honoring the practice and Mr. Li Hongzhi for its amazing effects on healing diseases and improving one's moral standard.
在谈到如此好的功法因何遭到中共政权的镇压时，文章写道，由于中国大陆在短短七年的时间里学炼法轮功的人数达到了近亿人，远远超过了中共党员的人数，使得中共政权既恐惧又妒嫉，因此于一九九九年七月开始了对法轮功学员的血腥迫害。
The article also exposed the persecution of Falun Gong. It said, “Since there were more Falun Gong practitioners in China than members of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), the heads of the CCP, due to fear and jealousy, launched the persecution of Falun Gong in July 1999.”
文章强调说，在中国，很多法轮功学员被非法抓捕后，要么被强行送往洗脑班或精神病院，要么被判刑或劳改，遭受各种非人的酷刑和精神折磨。更有甚者，中共竟然活体摘取法轮功学员的器官高价售给外国人牟利。加拿大前亚太司司长大卫•乔高和国际人权律师大卫•麦塔斯在经过多方调查取证后，证实了中共的这一血腥罪行。
The article highlighted the fact that many Falun Gong practitioners in China were and are being arrested and sent to forced labor camps or mental hospitals, while others have been sent to brainwashing centers and sentenced to jail or prison and badly tortured. The CCP has even harvested organs from living practitioners for profit. David Kilgour and David Matas, two Canadian politicians and human rights activists, collected evidence attesting to the organ harvesting.
文章最后说，每年的五月十三日是“世界法轮大法日”，因为法轮大法在世界上传播的国家越来越多。在土耳其，法轮功学员们在努力提高自己的同时，为唤醒政府和民众对这场迫害的关注，一直在用平和的方式，向人们讲述着中共迫害法轮功的真相。
The article mentioned that May 13 is World Falun Dafa Day, and practitioners all over the world will hold celebrations. The article said that practitioners in Turkey have been trying to call upon the government and public to pay more attention to the persecution. They peacefully clarify the truth of Falun Gong as they cultivate themselves.
