(ENG/CHI SUB) Heartfelt Chinese New Year Wishes: Families Sending Love to Persecuted Parents

Mom, happy new year. We miss you so much. We haven't seen you for more than two years. Dad, happy new year. It's been three years. My mom and I know you've had a hard time in there. Three years is not easy. Happy new year to my dad, mom, grandma, and our family. Dad, mom, how are you? It's been a long time. Happy new year. Mom, how are you? The new year is coming. I know you're going to spend this year in prison. I feel so bad. My mom has been in prison for more than two years. She can't see us or call us. She doesn't want to give up her faith. My father, De Yongzhou, was sentenced to prison for eight years just because of his belief. And this persecution happens on a daily basis in China. Millions of people have been put into prison labor camps or brainwashing centers just because of his belief. I found out about you on Minghui.com and other websites. I heard about where you were being held. My friends told me that you were going to be released this year. It's not wrong to believe in good people. It's not wrong to be a good person. The Communist Party is wrong. Recently, the WUZHOU Committee passed an emergency resolution to prosecute Chinese law students. The story of you and my mother being persecuted is also included in this resolution. Both of my teachers know about you. They support me a lot. My classmates do, too. We also have an online page. Two members of the WUZHOU Committee wrote letters to Trudeau. In the past few years, I have asked Senator Rubio, Senator Rick Scott, my congressman, Gaspari Rakesh, to help my father. They have written several letters to the State Department and the presidency to call for the release of my father. It gives me great joy to extend my warm Chinese New Year greetings to my friends in the Falun Dafa community. I know that you have had to endure many things. You are such an example of virtues like truth and kindness and forbearance and virtue. And I admire you greatly. I know the challenges you face are not easy. But I hope that the coming year will bring blessings and happiness to your family. Happy New Year from myself and from all of us at Human Rights Action Group. David and I have been so privileged to work with the Falun Gong community in its fight to combat atrocities perpetrated by the CCP and to raise awareness about foreign interference and transnational repression. Our thoughts are with you at this time and we wish you the very best next year. I am Dr. Harold King, member of Doctors Against Forced Organ Harvesting. My name is David Meires. I am an international human rights lawyer based in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. The Falun Gong practitioners who have been so harshly persecuted since years and sometimes with no recognition all over the world for their suffering. Falun Gong practitioners are the main victims of forced organ harvesting. I promise you I will continue in these efforts to try to end the persecution of Falun Gong and the killing of Falun Gong in our organs until these atrocities end and the perpetrators are brought to justice. Stay strong. We are behind you. Happy Chinese New Year. No matter how hard and difficult it is, I hope you will persevere. I believe this day will come soon. Please take care of your health inside. Health is the first priority. We are waiting for the day you come out and we will take you to the United States. Our family will reunite. If you are released this year, we will reunite in the United States, okay? I hope you stay well inside and don't give up. I know you will be fine. I always dream of you coming out and we will go out and play together like we used to. I think we will be fine in this free society in the future. During this hard time, though, there are many people who have supported me, helped me save my parents, helped spread the truth. I wish everyone a happy Chinese New Year. I want to take this opportunity to thank all of you who helped rescue my mom and who support Falun Dafa. In this special moment, I wish you a happy and healthy 2024 and a happy Chinese New Year.
