The Defeat of Les Presses Chinoises’ Lawsuit against The Epoch Times Clearly Spells Out the Inevitable Fate of Agents of the Chinese Communist Regime


March 15, 2012 | By Zhong Yan


(Clearwisdom.net) On February 23, 2012, the Canadian Court of Appeals in Quebec dismissed Les Presses Chinoises owner Crescent Chau’s appeal of an earlier judgment against his defamation lawsuit regarding The Epoch Times. In a unanimous decision, the three Canadian Appeals Court judges upheld the ruling Justice Catherine Mandeville handed down at the Quebec Superior Court on April 29, 2010, when she originally dismissed Chau’s case. “The trial judge concluded that the articles specified are not an unfair attack to the reputation of the appellants [Chau and co.]. It is worth repeating that in those articles, the respondent [The Epoch Times] claims that the appellants are agents of the People’s Republic of China, and that they are funded by the latter to spread its ideology regarding Falun Gong,” reads the judgment.
The outcome of this case has four implications: First, it is perfectly legal for The Epoch Times to reveal the fact that Crescent Chau and his Les Presses Chinoisesacted as agents of the Chinese Communist regime. Second, sooner or later, the Chinese Communist regime’s tactic of funding overseas Chinese media and instigating them to attack Falun Gong on its behalf will be exposed to the public. Third, the regime’s attempt to utilize the Western legal system to silence people who speak the truth will only hurt itself in the end. Lastly, those who act as the regime’s agents out of material interests will eventually face moral and legal punishment.
In order to give readers a good idea of various aspects of this particular lawsuit, we compiled the following facts from articles published in The Epoch Times. Note, some paragraphs are direct quotations from The Epoch Times articles while others are paraphrased. For details, see:
“Chinese Newspaper Defamed Group, Quebec Court Says”
http://www.theepochtimes.com/news/8-6-5/71446.html 
“Canadian Group Denies Being Front For Chinese Regime”
http://www.theepochtimes.com/news/7-6-21/56758.html 
“Montreal Newspaper a Voice for Chinese Regime”
http://www.theepochtimes.com/news/7-7-6/57287.html 
Timeline of the Lawsuit
It all started in late 2001, when Crescent Chau began to publish four special editions of his Montreal-based newspaper Les Presses Chinoises, which usually numbered at most 4,000 copies per week in Montreal and Ottawa. Chau himself declared that he was on a personal “crusade” against Falun Gong and called on the Montreal Chinese community to denounce it.
In August 2006, Chau somehow drummed up the funds to print 100,000 copies of a special 32-page tabloid without a single advertisement and distributed it nationwide free of charge. These special editions had no advertisements or news, just articles denouncing and calling for the elimination of the Falun Gong meditation practice, which has been subject to violent suppression in China since 1999. The articles repeated the Chinese regime’s most malicious, unsubstantiated charges against Falun Gong practitioners—that they engage in bestiality, vampirism, murder, and suicide. These are exactly the same virulent fabrications state-run media in China have broadcast since the practice was outlawed in 1999—charges that multiple government bodies and rights groups say are propaganda, used to justify the repression.
The Epoch Times examined Chau and his business and wrote several articles detailing his actions in 2007. In one article titled, “Montreal Newspaper a Voice for the Chinese Regime” (see http://www.theepochtimes.com/news/7-7-6/57287.html for details), The Epoch Times interviewed Chen Yonglin, a former high-ranking Chinese diplomat, the first secretary at the Chinese consulate in Sydney, Australia, before he defected in 2005. Chen suggested Chau was working on behalf of the Chinese regime.
That same year, Chau sued The Epoch Times for libel, seeking nearly a quarter million dollars in damages. The case reached the Quebec Court of Appeals in November 2009. Justice Catherine Mandeville dismissed the case on April 29, 2010. “This is a case of the biter complaining about being bitten,” she said in her ruling, adding that it was fair to suggest that Chau was acting as an agent of Beijing. The Epoch Times articles expressed “legitimate concerns and constitute an opinion which is drawn from a factual premise and not made for the purpose of abusively attacking the reputation of Mr. Chau,” the court found.
Chau appealed to the Quebec Court of Appeal on April 29, 2010, requesting thatThe Epoch Times pay damages of 70,000 Canadian dollars, as well as cover all his legal costs. The Court of Appeals ruled on February 23, 2012 that there was no reason to believe an ordinary citizen would deem that Crescent Chau or his paper had been improperly defamed, stating that “In view of the overall context of this public debate, this Court concludes that the litigious statements express legitimate concerns and constitute an opinion which is drawn from a factual premise and not made for the purpose of abusively attacking the reputation of Mr. Chau.” The court also found, “The fact that the respondent refers to the appellants as agents promoting the ideas of a government cannot be considered defamatory in those circumstances. All the more, Chau has declared several times that he shares the ideas of China about the movement in question.”
The court also ruled that Chau should cover The Epoch Times’ defense costs.
The Chinese Regime’s Overseas Mouthpiece Fails to Silence People with Western Legal System
Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) agent Michel Juneau-Katsuya, who used to head up the agency’s Asia-Pacific desk, said lawsuits like the oneThe Epoch Times faced are a common strategy the Chinese regime uses to silence people who are writing about sensitive topics.
He commented, “Chinese intelligence services know the law, and they have been using the law to try and intimidate people. This is a form gagging lawsuit. They try to sue people and entangle them in lawsuits for a long period of time, knowing this will cost them a lot of money, to scare them not to write about them.” He also said, “We know one thing — that the vast majority of the Chinese media are actively controlled by the [Chinese] government.”
Chau’s attempt to silence The Epoch Times with his defamation lawsuit has failed. This outcome shows that Western society’s respect for free speech is based on facts, not defamation.
The Chinese Regime’s Ongoing Efforts to Infuse Overseas Chinese Media with Capital
Concerns over the Chinese regime’s ability to influence Canadian society and policy were brought out in April 2009 when former CSIS head Jim Judd broke with the policy of not naming countries and revealed that nearly half of CSIS’s counter-intelligence resources were being dedicated to Chinese spies in Canada.
Michel Juneau-Katsuya indicated that there are at least two dozen front organizations controlled by the Chinese regime operating in Canada. He also specifically cited a Chinese newspaper report, an article indicating that the Chinese Communist Party’s central committee had dedicated an additional $3 billion to the Foreign Affairs Department and United Work Department to “embellish” the Chinese regime and China abroad for the next fiscal year.
According to a Jamestown Foundation organization article entitled “How China’s Government Is Attempting To Control Chinese Media In America,” the Chinese regime uses the following tactics to influence overseas Chinese media:
“First is the attempt to directly control newspapers, television stations and radio stations through complete ownership or owning major shares. Second is the government’s use of economic ties to influence independent media who have business relations with China. This leverage has had major effects on the contents of broadcasting and publishing, effectively removing all material deemed “unfavorable” by the Chinese government. Third is the purchasing of broadcast time and advertising space (or more) from existing independent media. Closely related to this is the government’s providing of free, ready-to-go programming and contents. Fourth is the deployment of government personnel to work in independent media, achieving influence from within their ranks.”
No one has exact data on how much money the Chinese regime has provided overseas Chinese newspapers, radios and TV stations. Xu Jiatun, former head of the Xinhua Net in Hong Kong, once said he helped transfer 30 million dollars to a pro-Chinese regime newspaper published in the U.S. and Hong Kong.
Chen Yonglin, the former Chinese consul, provided a document from the Chinese consulate in Sydney to show the depth of the Chinese regime’s infiltration of the Western world. Dated February 7, 2001, and titled, “Special Anti-Falun Gong Working Group Division of Labour Table,” it lists the responsibilities for members of the anti-Falun Gong team, which included the heads of all sections at the consulate. For example, the head of the political affairs department was responsible for “recommending” anti-Falun Gong articles from state-run media in China for use in Chinese-language media overseas and writing anti-Falun Gong articles for publishing in Chinese-language media. The head of the culture department was charged with sending such articles to politicians and media.
Chen said, “It is clear that Les Presses Chinoises is cooperating with the Chinese embassy and consulate and has become the hatchet man and propaganda tool for the Chinese Communist Party here.” He added, “It is very likely that the printing costs were directly funded by the Chinese embassy and consulate. The contents seem to be mostly produced and provided by the CCP.”
Canada Does Not Tolerate Organizations Controlled by Foreign Governments
Michel Juneau-Katsuya said, “CSIS’s responsibility is to protect Canadians and the government of Canada. Any organizations perceived as acting on behalf of a foreign government to do political or other forms of interference is and will be investigated by CSIS.”
He continued, “We know one thing — the vast majority of Chinese media are actively controlled by the [Chinese] government.”
Chau’s efforts to demonize Falun Gong did not go unnoticed after he published the defamatory articles. Within four days of the “special edition” hitting the streets, the website for the Mainland China-based People’s Daily, the official newspaper of the Chinese Communist Party, published a report praising Chau.
Juneau-Katsuya also raised an alarm that such efforts may increase, owing to an increased budget for the Chinese regime’s United Front Work Department, which manages such efforts overseas. He commented, “The United Front Work Department has been extremely active in financially and logistically supporting many of the organizations of this nature as front organizations to promote Chinese interests and to spy on Canadians and Chinese abroad.”
“They have at their disposal a phenomenal amount of resources to use front organizations and people supporting their activities,” said Juneau-Katsuya.
He added, “Any organization that is used by a foreign entity to do such activities here is judged to be unacceptable.”

张而平：善恶正邪 人们在选择

(http://youtu.be/q05jP2NFrjo)


【新唐人2012年5月26日讯】近期的王晓东和周向阳事件，从中国官方到民间都在讨论。法轮功发言人张而平表示，面对中国社会的转型时期，法轮功学员的善良，让每个人都拷问着自己的良心，在善与恶之间，做出选择。
在中共政权高压铁腕的统治下，许多中国民众对于法轮功的镇压，默不作声，视而不见。但是也有这么一群人，选择了不一样的方式，他们站出来，为法轮功说句公道话。
法轮功发言人张而平表示，其实这个现象早在几年前就已经出现，他回忆，2000年时，北京女教师赵昕因为修炼法轮功被残害致死，当时许多赵昕的学生、同事不顾安危，前来她的告别式见赵昕最后一面。
张而平法轮功发言人：〝这一系列的事情说明了什么呢？说明在过去这些年，中共对法轮功的镇压，它设法使法轮功妖魔化，就是用钱用谎言哪对法轮功进行妖魔化，企图把法轮功和社会各个阶层隔离开，这些企图全部失败。而且还说明什么问题呢，就是在中国这个社会里，修炼真善忍，法轮功这些好人呢，这社会上的人看的是清清楚楚，这些公开请愿，这些签名，包括周官屯村300多村民按手印要求释放法轮功学员王晓东，说明大家有个普遍的共识，这些修炼法轮功的人都是好人，都是道德高尚的人。〞
近几年间，一批批中国维权律师顶住压力，挺身而出，为法轮功修炼者作无罪辩护。
张而平法轮功发言人： 〝我们大家都知道，中国社会面临一个转型的时期，所有的人都面临这个选择，或者是站在历史正义的这一边，或者走向其反面。我们希望在这个时刻，每一个人都拷问自己的良心，能够为真善忍，中国正直的法轮功学员站起来说话。〞
张而平表示，失人心者必失天下，那些继续参与迫害法轮功的人，同样面临着选择的时刻。

Persecution at Chongqing Women’s Forced Labor Camp


Persecution and Forced Labor at the Chongqing Women’s Forced Labor Camp


March 21, 2010 | By a correspondent in Chongqing
(Clearwisdom.net) Falun Gong practitioners are tortured at Chongqing Women’s Forced Labor Camp. They are also subjected to brainwashing and forced to do hard labor for the labor camp’s financial gain. The labor camp uses the following three stages to persecute practitioners and to force them to do slave labor.
Stage 1: Training and Discipline
As soon as a Falun Gong practitioner arrives at the labor camp, arrangements are made for drug addicts to monitor the practitioner around the clock. The practitioners are forced to stand and squat in military formation during the day and are forced to write a “thought report” at midnight. The schedule was changed between April and May 2009. Practitioners were forced to write a “thought report” before 11:00 p.m. and go to bed at 11:00 p.m. The drug addicts take turns monitoring the practitioners and the lights of all the cells must be kept on during sleep time. The so-called “transformed” practitioners are locked in cells on the second floor, and new inmates, as well as practitioners who refuse to be “transformed” are locked in cells together with the drug addicts on the third floor. The practitioners must have their back to the wall when sleeping at night. Practitioner Zhang Zhengying was beaten in January of this year by drug addict Shen Hong because she faced the wall while sleeping.
Under the instigation from the corrupt camp guards, the drug addicts beat and verbally abuse practitioners at will. Drug addicts Zhang Hui and Li Jing beat practitioner Ms. Hu Liangjie until she vomited because she refused to write a “thought report.” Ms. Hu, in her fifties, had been detained at the labor camp since May 2008. Drug addict Wang Haiyan often beat practitioners, and once beat practitioner Ms. Zhang Jie so hard that Ms. Zhang could not lift her arm. Drug addict Feng Xueshuang once abused practitioner Tang Shizhen by forcing her to stand-up and squat-down 400 times. Drug addict Li Fengqiang forced practitioner Yang Zhongqin to eat the notebook in which she had been forced to write the thought report during the period of “training and discipline.”
Falun Gong practitioners who refuse to be “transformed” are persecuted by being locked up in small confinement cells. In these small cells the practitioners are not allowed to sleep in beds, and have to sleep on the floor, or be brutally beaten. Sixty-nine-year-old practitioner Qiu Shengshu was once locked in a small cell.
Stage 2: Brainwashing
Every day, two or three “education helpers” (brainwashing assistants) force the Falun Gong practitioners to read books and other materials that slander Falun Gong. The practitioners are also forced to attend brainwashing sessions every day and write “thought reports” every night. After they have been subjected to brainwashing for a month, the practitioners are coerced to write the three statements.
The so-called “transformed” ones are then locked in cells on the second floor and sent to the workshops to do slave labor. They are subjected to brainwashing sessions for two hours every day and must write “thought reports” every night. They are subjected to brainwashing for one or two more months.
The practitioners who refuse to be “transformed” are subjected to further persecution by the labor camp.
Stage 3: Forced Labor
Products of forced labor:
Various candies are wrapped at the labor camp. The candies above are popular for wedding celebrations.
The labor camp subjects practitioners to forced labor. Camp guards send the younger practitioners to the rubber shop to make fittings for the Chongqing Changan Automobile. This workshop failed in December 2008 and then changed to making fittings for electrical wire installation.
The older practitioners are sent to the candy shop to wrap candies, and have to meet a high hourly quota. In December 2009, camp guards raised the quota again, adding one jin (1 jin = 1.1 pound) to the hourly quota. The practitioners who are 45 years of age and younger must wrap ten jin of candy every hour. The practitioners who are 46 to 60 years of age must wrap nine jin. Practitioners who are 61 to 65 years of age must wrap 6 jin, and practitioners who are 66 years of age or older must wrap five jin per hour. If one misses the quota by nine hours in one week, she is forced to sit upright for two hours every night as punishment if she is over 60 years old, forced to stand for two hours every night if she’s younger than 60 years old. The guards also oversee monthly inventory and production records on the 24th of each month, and the bottom three producers on the amount finished list, even though they have finished their quota, have their credit reduced and are forced to write “self-criticisms.”
The candy wrapping in the Fourth Division is kept hidden from the outside. The candy barrel and the board used for the candy wrapping are filthy and covered with mildew. Mouse excrement is often seen mixed in with the candies. When the higher authorities come to inspect, the camp guards hide all the candies behind the last two doors on the bottom floor in the shop for making the fittings for electric wiring installation. It was said that the National Labor Bureau was conducting a comprehensive inspection which lasted twenty days in August, 2009. The division took away all the candy barrels and candy wrappers on August 16. Hu Xiaoyan, Party secretary in the camp, personally threatened over 200 laborers, “If the authorities ask what kind of work you do in the factory, you are to say that you are making fittings and paper cartons. Don’t say candy wrapping. Whoever says ‘candy wrapping’ will suffer the consequences of having your term extended.”
The following are the types of candies wrapped in the labor camp and their names and manufacturer. Please let people know they should not buy products made by the Yaxuan Corporation.
Manufacturer: Yaxuan Corporation, Limited 
Company address: Industrial park, Yuzui Township, Jiangbei, Chongqing 
Telephone: 86-23-67580555, Fax: 86-23-67580788
Force labor products: 
Various candies, including string candy, fan candy, and candy canes

进化论只是一种假说


踩在三叶虫上的远古脚印(1968年6月，美国业余化石爱好者 W.J.曼斯特在犹他州的羚羊泉发现)
达尔文的“进化论”，只是一个不成熟的科学假说。充其量只能算是个大胆的猜想。他自己当初拿出来的时候，也是胆胆突突的。

在美国的密西西比河及中国的新疆乌鲁木齐市等多处，发现在距今二亿七千万年历史的“三叶虫”化石中，有穿鞋子的人类足迹。按照达尔文理论在连脊椎动物也未演化出来之前，是绝不可能有类似人的动物会在这个星球上行走的。还有更早的。一九七二年六月，法国科学家在非洲加蓬共和国著名的奥克洛铀矿发现了一个古老的核反应堆，这个反应堆保存完整，结构合理。据考证，奥克洛铀矿成矿年代大约在20亿年之前，成矿后不久就有了这一核反应堆，运转时间长达50万年之久。那么，是谁留下了这个古老的核反应堆呢？其它再如玛雅文明，见诸世界各地的大量的其它史前文明遗迹，以及中国的河图、洛书、太极、八卦、周易等等，明显不是本次人类文明的产物，进化论根本都无法解释。
著名的埃及金字塔，所用巨石切削平滑整齐，重量都在几吨、十几吨，甚至上百吨。巨石之间契合紧密，连最薄的刀片都插不进去。相邻的巨石之间都有熔化的金属相连。这些技术不仅古埃及人做不到，在今天都难以做到。在没有科学的古代，这些巨石是如何开采、切割、运输，又是如何摆放、升高的呢？埃及大金字塔中的王殿石棺，是一整块花岗岩雕凿而成；胡夫大金字塔前的狮身人面像有几层楼高，也是一整块巨石雕成。埃及基沙三个金字塔正对着猎户星座的三星；帝华纳科神庙的正门和墙角，还精确地定位了春天、夏天、冬天第一天太阳升起的位置。在科学不发达的古代，古人是如何做到这一点的呢？考古学家克莱默和汤姆森的《考古学禁区》一书，列举了500个确凿的与进化论相悖的事例，都是几万、几十万、百万、千万甚至几亿年前的人类文明遗迹。这一切只能说明一样：多期高度发达的人类文明曾经在地球存在过，人类的历史根本就不是进化而来。
可以说，达尔文要再晚生一百年，进化论就绝对不可能出现。实际上达尔文自己对进化论也模棱两可，似信非信。他在《物种起源》一书的第六章<理论的难题>之 “极其完美和复杂的器官”一节中写到，“眼睛有调节焦距、允许不同采光量和纠正球面像差和色差的无与伦比的设计。我坦白地承认，认为眼睛是通过自然选择而形成的假说似乎是最荒谬可笑的。”不止是人的眼睛，生物学家证明，自有生命以来，没有一个细胞是巧合形成的。同时，无论是陆地上、海洋中，还是微观下的丰富多样、千姿百态、异彩纷呈的各种动物、植物、微生物，那奇特的形态、缤纷的色彩、美妙的花纹、精巧细密的内在结构；那不同的生物圈、气候带的各个不同的物种，等等这奇妙无比的大千世界。达尔文说这一切是由大分子、小分子随意碰撞而成，显然太过荒唐。
进化论之所以对世界造成较大影响，并不是达尔文的理论有多高明、多正确，而是因为他的自然选择、弱肉强食学说符合了共产党的暴力革命、阶级斗争理念，被共产党利用了而已。进化论本来是学术问题，最终却演变为政治论争，从科学问题变成了社会问题、政治问题。真正的真理需要严密的推理和无可辩驳的证据。而一百多年来，在古生物学上，至今没有找到确凿的证据——进化中的过渡类型，在从猿到人的所谓进化中，没有中间过程。猿猴依旧是猿猴，人依然是人。迄今为止的所有科学发现，都没有从猿到人两者之间那种半猿半人的进化过程中的半拉子情况。
《审判达尔文》的作者约翰逊如此总结：“化石向我们展示的都是突然出现的某种有机体，没有逐步进化的任何痕迹……这些有机体一旦出现，基本上就不再变了，哪怕过了几百万年，不管气候和环境如何变化，也不变了。如果达尔文的理论成立，这些条件本应该引起物种的巨大变化。”

A Tax Official's Change after Practicing Falun Gong (Falun Dafa)

A Tax Official's Extreme Change after Practicing Falun Dafa

May 27, 2012 | By Xue Zhongmei, a Falun Dafa practitioner from China
(Minghui.org) I used to suffer from all kinds of ailments and could not take care of my daily needs. Because of a slipped disc, I could not walk normally but could only move haltingly, step by step. I used a customized steel belt to support my back. In addition, I was afraid of opening my eyes when I was outside. On bad days I feared getting cold and covered up with a quilt, and I kept the windows closed at night. Whenever I was hospitalized, I would be in the hospital for at least three months. Because of so many injections, the nurses could not find another place for an injection, evem in my buttocks. I took a lot of Chinese and Western medicines. In addition to medication, I went to temples to worship Buddha, kowtow, and burn incense in an attempt to cure my ailments, but all of this was in vain.
In 1998, the husband of an acquaintance said to me, “Practice Falun Gong! My wife is free of back pain after practicing Falun Gong. She now even gives postpartum care at home!” At first I did not believe it because I had tried every possible approach, including begging Buddha, but none of them could cure my illnesses. One day while I was lying in bed, I thought, “I have exhausted all methods but my ailments have not disappeared, so why not practice Falun Gong!” My friend’s husband then gave me the audiotapes of the lectures given by Master Li Hongzhi. I quietly listened to the lectures one by one, and wondered why the principles were so different from my views of life.
I am a national tax official. Before suffering from illness, I was aggressive and had a strong competitive mentality. Since my post granted me power, I developed a very greedy personality. Sometimes I would tell my husband, “Bring the cardboard boxes from your office back home. We can make money by selling them for two cents each!” I was harsh on taxpayers. For example, I went to a flour mill owned by taxpayers to ask for free flour, and then I would drag two big bags on my small bicycle back home. The potholed dirt road could not keep me from doing this, back and forth, several times a day. If I could not consume all of the flour I just sold it for profit. I could not sleep well when festival seasons came because I would rack my brain to think how to take more advantage of taxpayers. As for gifts given by taxpayers, I would accept them all and I took them for granted. I would sometimes ask for more if I thought the gifts were too small. In addition, I would cause trouble for taxpayers by finding fault with their tax forms on purpose, and I did not approve their tax reports until they gave me more bribes.
I did not pay a penny for my meals when I went out to restaurants owned by taxpayers. Sometimes I even ordered take-out dishes from home and did not pay for them, either. I knew that I would be nothing to taxpayers if I were dismissed from my post, so I therefore wanted to make as much side profit as I could as long as I was in my position. Every time I went to big enterprises for audits, I would eat and drink as much as possible, and what’s more, I would bring things back home until it was too heavy for me to carry. Sometimes taxpayers wanted to pay for my shopping in stores because they knew that I was the one who would decide how much they needed to pay for their taxes. The only loser was the tax revenue. Such was my miserable life, and by vying and competing for personal gain day after day, I ended up with all kinds of physical ailments.
I blamed myself while listening to the lectures by Master. Since then, I have completely changed my view of life. Through practicing Falun Gong, I am free of illness and my entire body is light. Once, before the Moon Festival, my department scheduled an audit of taxpayer’s tax forms. A lot of them wanted to give me shopping cards in exchange for less taxes if I committed fraud on their forms, but I turned all of them down. Some taxpayers invited me out for meals, but I replied, “You can feed your whole family on only five yuan; however, if you buy me a meal in a restaurant it would cost you more than 85 yuan. It is too expensive to have a meal in a restaurant.” Since then, I do not have meals at the expense of taxpayers. One time, there was something wrong with a taxpayer’s form. In the evening the taxpayer stopped by and wanted to give me a bribe. I refused to take it, but he did not want to leave my home. I pointed to the Chinese character “De” (virtue) on the wall and said, “The principles of Falun Gong which I practice are Zhen-Shan-Ren (Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance). The character De on the wall is a very important moral virtue for people to follow. If I take your gift I will lose De. I will take your interests into consideration only if it is not against national policy.” He smiled and left. Later he told me that his uncle also practiced Falun Gong, and he knew that practitioners were all good people.
Some taxpayers wanted to establish further relations with me and asked for my personal phone number, but I refused and said, “Please call me at my office number.” My colleagues have several apartments and new cars, but I am not jealous and conduct myself according the principles of Zhen-Shan-Ren. During one Lunar New Year, a taxpayer wanted to give me something as a gift and asked for my address, but I did not give it out to him. He said, “You know, we are relatives. The grandson of the second son of the son-in-law of the second daughter of your aunt on your mother’s side is my nephew, so we are true relatives.” I laughed, as I knew that what he valued more was the power I had from my post.
Though the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) regime continues to persecute Falun Gong, to corrupt, abuse power to damage the national interest, and to fatten its purse at the expense of the public, I still take the interests of my country as a whole into consideration. I remember what Master said, “If officials are unselfish, the state will not be corrupt.” (“Pacify the External by Cultivating the Internal,” Essentials for Further Advancement)
One of my colleagues was entrusted by us to manage our social security fees. However he often used the money for his own use, which annoyed everyone. Since I am the first one in the office and the last one to leave every day, and I clean up the office and work very diligently, do any assignment the boss gives, and no longer compete for personal gain, my colleagues entrusted me to manage the social security fees. I publish a detailed list of the fees once a week and let them know clearly the exact cash flow, down to the last penny. My colleagues laugh in relief and some have said, “We trust you and will not question you even if you do not post the details for a year.” My post is granted first by an audit by the higher-level authorities every year. The director general of my department has praised me publicly many times in assemblies: “If every staff behaved like [me], the performance of our unit would be well improved.”
After practicing Falun Gong, I no longer make a side profit from taxpayers. My work is praised as “Qing Shui Ya Men” (a work unit which has no outside income). Because I practice Falun Dafa, I am now like a completely different person.

两个监狱里的故事


文／大陆大法弟子
【明慧网二零一二年五月三十日】故事一：了解真相　狱警变了
那是二零零二年，我因制作法轮功真相资料遭中共迫害，被非法判刑关入省城监狱。那时的狱警根本不了解大法的真相，完全被中共谎言灌输洗脑，他们对大法和大法弟子都十分仇视和敌对。
陈仁（化名）是我接触的第一个管教狱警。他三十出头，当狱警已十多年。我们有一年多的交往。第一面的场景我还记得很清晰：在办公室，他傲慢的靠在转椅上，一副盛气凌人的姿态，手里拿着我的所谓档案，愣愣的瞅着我（我也正视着他），足足有三、四分钟，象要看出些什么似的。
“大学本科，少校军官，三十岁，你也炼法轮功？奇了怪了！炼几年了？学的知识哪去了？看来得好好开导开导你。”他边说边摇头，一副大惑不解的样子。
后来与他的几次接触中才知道，狱警们都是中毒于中共诋毁大法的宣传，误以为大法学员要么精神不正常，要么是没文化，上当受骗。经过与我半年的接触和了解，他发觉大法学员不但思维清晰、理性，而且朴实，善良，完全不是中共宣传的那样。再与我交谈时，他没有了当初的敌意和傲慢，他的认识也在改变。其实，在现实面前，中共的宣传越邪乎，越容易被破除。
一次，他让我写写对大法的认识和感受。这是讲真相的好机会，我用心的写了三天，以破除他脑中中共宣传灌输的“中共政府永远是正确”的荒谬。首先我纠正中共长期灌输给他的歪理，告诉他坐牢的未必都是坏人，好人也可能遭冤狱。大法学员是按宇宙大法“真、善、忍”的标准做好人，根本无罪，正在受冤狱的迫害。其次再说明法轮功到底是什么。然后从自己学大法后身心健康、道德升华、家庭和睦说起；到大法遭江氏妒忌，无端被构陷遭打压；大法学员抱着对政府的信任，進京上访（向政府讲明真相中共当局非但不听，反而动用警察和监狱迫害大法学员，并罔顾大法洪传短短的七年间，修炼者身心受益、普遍人心向善、道德回升的事实，一再昧心的用谎言抹黑诬蔑大法，甚至不惜导演天安门“自焚”伪案栽赃，陷害法轮功，大法学员是无辜的，真善忍没有错；是中共政府在作恶，在犯罪。在我这样年龄的人的记忆里，荒唐的文革、血腥的六四，哪一次不是中共和其操控的政府在向人民，在向历史犯罪。大法学员对大法的认知是在实践中理性的升华，是真正懂得生命意义的修炼人，为真理舍命而不足惜。这也正是为什么千千万万的大法学员在面对残酷的镇压，坐牢，甚至失去生命的威胁，依然能义无反顾的向民众讲真相的原因。再精致的谎言终究是谎言，总要穿帮的。纸包不住火，真相迟早会大白于天下。能为大法献身是自己生命的荣耀，所以自己虽然受到今天这样的迫害，可从没有后悔过。
看完我的这份认识后，他很长一段时间没有再找我。但我明显感到他在变化。后来，一个和他关系很近的犯人告诉我说，他私下说：“法轮功不简单，很有才，文章写的好。”
那时我的身体在看守所被迫害的很严重，我基本上是留在号室里的，他一直默认，从不责令我出工，只是劝我多到车间活动活动，保护好身体。天冷后，他安排我转到阳面号室的一张下铺。这对刚入监的人来说很难有此条件。后来，监区每次改善伙食或分发食物（不出工的人是不给的），他都让其他犯人给我留一份。我知道他在生活上悄悄关心我。
一次，他对我说，“原本还想找你家人一起来做‘转化’，看来也没必要。”我说：“别瞎折腾，没用。”他说：“其它监区一些人（被）‘转化’了，别的管教给我传授经验说：‘讲道理咱们讲不过法轮功，对待法轮功就是要用棍棒和械具，手段越狠越管用。’这只是土匪的做法，人心不服有什么用？”我说：“是呀，我师父说了：‘强制改变不了人心。’谁正谁邪，岂不一目了然？”他看着我，好一阵子默不作声。
“转化”法轮功是监狱管教狱警的硬任务，而他一年多一直“无所作为”。不过，有一点是肯定的，他会受到“上面”的压力，至于多少，我不得而知。一年后，他调走了，脱离了管教工作。
故事二：维护大法弟子的犯人
他叫羊娃（小名），西北汉子，黝黑的脸膛，壮实的身材，一脸的质朴。二零零六年在省城监狱，因偶然的机会我结识了他。知道我是修炼法轮功的，他显的很高兴，于是羊娃给我讲述了一段他终生难忘的经历：
我家住在西北偏远山区的贫困农村。家中很贫，全家人就指望着几亩靠天吃饭的山地过活。我们这，山高皇帝远，（中共）村支书就是这儿没人敢碰的“土皇帝”、“土霸王”。那是九九年初夏，父亲因为驱赶糟蹋我家地里庄稼的几只村支书家的山羊，得罪了村支书。支书竟然拿着凶器闯到我家里，追打我的父亲。在保护父亲时，我失手打死了支书。我知道自己闯了祸，安慰了父母，我就投案自首了。可村支书家有钱有势，上下疏通关系，非要我命不可。我家穷，哪有钱请律师打官司，年迈可怜的父母只有无助的眼泪。
关進看守所，我只当自己已经死了。也许命不该绝，二零零零年初的一天，我在的监号突然关進来一名法轮功（学员），是我们县某局的李局长。我们认识后，从他那我才知道了许多有关法轮功的事情。李局长非常善良，知道我的案情后，很同情我。他愿意掏钱帮我请律师打这场官司。那可是五、六千块钱，对我那样的家庭来说，就是个天文数字。有了李局长的帮助，我才有了生的希望。否则，我只有等死的份。
律师请来了，虽然尽了力，可村支书家势力大，我还是被判了死缓。律师说法院判的不公，我属防卫过当，罪根本不至此。我倒挺知足，这条命总是捡回来了。判决下来那天，看守所的警察都冲我喊：“你小子命大，要不是法轮功，你的小命还能留的住？！”谁都知道我的命是怎么保下来的。我们一家人也从心里感激法轮功，感激李局长。多亏了你们法轮功，要不，我还哪有机会活到现在认识你呀？
那阵子，号子的人都爱和李局长相处，听他讲法轮功的事，讲做人的道理。大家也都明白了法轮功究竟是怎么回事，电视上天天演的都是骗人的鬼话。如果世上的人都能象法轮功一样，照真善忍做人，那多好！哪还有我今天这样的遭遇，哪还有法轮功这样做好人还要坐牢的？这世道真让人想不通。
很可惜，我和李局长相处的日子太短。半年后我离开了看守所，去了监狱。
说来我和法轮功真是有缘。没想到，到了监狱又和几位被冤判的法轮功（学员）
在一个监区。但监狱对法轮功（学员）监管的可严了，根本就不让我们接触。警察专门想着法子折磨他们，专门挑一些监区里最坏的犯人包夹法轮功（学员）。一天二十四小时的监视，不让法轮功（学员）与任何人说话、接触。更可恶的是，那些包夹犯人可以随便辱骂、殴打法轮功（学员）。一看就知道警察在背后给他们撑腰。其他犯人看不惯，但也没办法，为了减刑，谁也不敢说什么。看着这些坏家伙随意欺负法轮功（学员），我心里一直憋着一股气。
一次，在车间里，三个“包夹”把六十多岁的法轮功（学员）老刘挤在墙角，拳打脚踢。正好让我看见，我跑过去朝这几个坏家伙就是几巴掌，愤怒的责问他们：“法轮功和你们有什么仇？你们这些吃软怕硬的家伙，就会欺负好人。”他们愣愣的瞅着我，谁也没敢吱声。
当时，我真还没怎么用劲，一个家伙的鼻子就流血了。三个都是“大烟鬼”（吸毒者），不禁碰！还没等我把老刘扶起来，这几个坏家伙就跑了。我知道他们告状去了。果然，没等下午收工，管教狱警就把我叫到了“谈话室”（专门刑讯犯人的地方），气势汹汹的拍着桌子冲我喊道：“我看你小子是活够了，袒护法轮功，跟政府对着干？我可提醒你，你还在死缓期呢！别找不自在。以后给我小心点！先扣你半年的生活零花钱（监狱每月支给每个服刑人员唯一的工钱，仅五元）作医疗费……”吓唬我的话说了一大堆，反正我也没害怕，也没听進去。后来那些医疗费还是老刘帮我支付的。
我的这条命是法轮功救的。我就知道法轮功（学员）是好人，祸害法轮功的肯定不是什么好东西。不过，从那以后还挺管用，那几个坏家伙再没敢明目张胆的欺负法轮功（学员）。监区其他犯人都佩服我，说我胆正，死缓期还敢打“（中共）政府的”人。说也奇，后来，狱警也再没找过我的事。
