            The US House of Representatives has called for the sacking of the
            Chinese Communist Party?s Major-General Zhu Chenghu after his recent
            statement that China would attack over one hundred American cities
            with nuclear weapons if the United States interferes in a war
            between Communist China and Taiwan. (Robyn Beck/AFP/Getty Images)
      The US House of Representatives has called for the sacking of the Chinese
      Communist Party?s Major-General Zhu Chenghu after his recent statement
      that China would attack over one hundred American cities with nuclear
      weapons if the United States interferes in a war between Communist China
      and Taiwan.
      General Zhu was speaking at a function for foreign journalists organized
      by the Chinese Foreign Affairs Ministry on July 14. During the function
      Zhu said: ?We...will prepare ourselves for the destruction of all of the
      [Chinese] cities east of Xian. Of course, the Americans will also have to
      expect that hundreds...of cities will be destroyed by the Chinese.? Zhu
      has previously said that China has the capability to attack the USA with
      long range missiles. The general is a professor and dean in China?s No. 1
      National Defense University Strategic Defense Institute which is under the
      direct leadership of the CCP?s Central Military Committee.
      Britain?s London Telegraph published an editorial titled, ?The Bullies in
      Beijing,? in which the editors said that Zhu?s speech is similar to one
      made by Mao Zedong in 1957. Mao said that nuclear war would both raze
      ?imperialism? to the ground and kill half the world?s people. Although
      General Zhu is not currently a member of Mainland?s China?s policy
      establishment, his speech was given during the critical period of US-China
      trade discussions and the Kuomintang?s presidential election in Taiwan.
      Purposely Arranged by Beijing
      The Chinese Communist Party did not reject Zhu?s speech and a spokesperson
      from the Foreign Affairs Ministry said Zhu?s speech was his own personal
      opinion. This spokesperson declined to comment on whether or not the
      speech represented the government?s view.
      Although General Zhu emphasized that what he said was his own opinion, a
      Pentagon official, speaking to a reporter at the Washington Times, said
      that Chinese generals normally express only official positions and that
      Zhu?s comments represent the views of senior Chinese military officers.
      ?These comments are a signal to all of Asia that China does not fear US
      forces,? this official said. He added that a disclosure such as this of
      elements in a Chinese war plan may have either been inadvertent, or
      cleared in advance by senior political leaders.
      Professor Tang Ben of the Claremont Institute?s Asian Studies Center
      published an article in Singapore?s Lianhe Zaobao on July 20, in which he
      asserted that what General Zhu alluded to was actually Beijing?s strategy
      to deal with current world circumstances, even though Beijing labeled his
      remarks as ?personal opinion.? Professor Tang wrote that people aware of
      the CCP?s diplomatic history would know that Zhu?s speech was purposely
      arranged by Beijing and not written by himself.
      Tang says that China has always used diplomats to discuss major issues, to
      prevent its military from commenting on sensitive foreign affairs topics.
      So in this instance, according to Professor Tang, CCP leaders in
      Zhongnanhai (the Chinese Kremlin) used a medium ranking official to state
      what they themselves could not say publicly.
      Andrew Yang, Secretary General of the Taiwan Council of Advanced Policy
      Studies (CAPS), said that Zhu?s speech is specifically directed at both
      the United States and Japan, because they announced for the first time
      that Taiwan?s security is of concern to both countries. Beijing?s
      communist government is watching how they respond in order to learn what
      policy will be adopted towards China. Mr. Yang also said that Zhu?s speech
      means the decision-makers in Beijing have already had discussions
      regarding changes in China?s ?no nuclear first strike policy.?
      Speech Represents Views of Some of the Military
      The editor of Taiwan?s Top Technology military magazine, Mr. Xie
      Zhongping, is not surprised that Zhu?s speech represents the views of some
      inside the Chinese military. Mr. Xie said that the part of the speech
      referring to the destruction of hundreds of American cities is the basic
      estimate of the situation by part of the Chinese military, even the
      government. His explanation is that the CCP?s government could tolerate
      more civilian and military casualties than could the US government or
      people.
      In an interview with Austria?s Die Presse, political science professor
      Ming Chu-cheng of Taiwan University said he also believes that General
      Zhu?s speech represents the view of part of the Chinese military.
      Professor Ming believes that Beijing uses fanatical nationalism to
      manipulate China?s internal affairs, to divert attention from the
      increasing poverty in the countryside and people?s lack of confidence. All
      the saber-rattling over Taiwan serves to warn and quell any rebellion
      inside China.
      US Congress Asks China to Sack its General
      US State Department spokesman Sean McCormack called Zhu?s remarks ?highly
      irresponsible? and told reporters that they hoped these were not the views
      of the Chinese government.
      On July 20, the US House of Representatives passed an amendment drafted by
      Congressman Tom Tancredo (R-CO) that ?expresses the sense of Congress that
      recent comments made by Chinese Major General Zhu Chenghu which openly
      advocate the use of nuclear weapons against the United States damage
      US-China relations and violate China?s commitment to resolve its
      differences with Taiwan peacefully. It further expresses that the
      government of the People?s Republic of China should renounce the use of
      force against Taiwan, reject General Zhu?s statements and remove Zhu from
      his position.?
      Also on July 20, in an amendment to the Appropriation Bill for the
      Department of State, the House urged the State Department to allow senior
      Taiwanese officials to visit the United States and communicate with their
      US counterparts. The House amendment specifically named Taiwan?s
      President, Vice-President, and the ministers of foreign affairs and
      defense as examples, and said it is in the interests of the United States
      for them to visit.



     CCP Spy Network Runs Deep in U.S.
      Military laboratories, Ivy League universities, private citizens face
      widespread espionage and repression from Chinese agents
     (http://www.theepochtimes.com/news/5-6-20/29637.html)

      By Jonathan Browde
      The Epoch Times


      Jun 20, 2005


            (AFP/Getty Images)
      A large network of Chinese Communist Party (CCP) spies is rampant in the
      U.S., say members of Congress, Ivy League academics, and two defecting CCP
      officials.
      The spies aim not only to steal military and technology secrets but also
      to influence, repress, and even control the ideals and actions of
      Americans.
      In defecting in Australia early in June, CCP officials Mr. Hao Fengiun and
      Mr. Chen Yonglin sparked a string of headlines, first in Australia then in
      Canada, about a massive network of CCP spies in Western countries that
      could far exceed previously held estimates of the problem.
      On the heels of these revelations, Australia?s foreign minister and
      Canada?s prime minister both personally responded to criticism from
      opposition leaders that their governments had not done enough to curb
      espionage and other illicit activity by CCP agents in their countries.
      According to one scholar with intimate knowledge of several Ivy League
      universities and associated research centers, however, the problem is far
      greater in the United States, where a public dialogue on the issue has yet
      to emerge.
      ?If China has deployed 1,000 spies to Australia and another 1,000 to
      Canada,? the scholar noted, ?can you imagine how many are here in the
      U.S.??
      Military Designs and Technology Stolen
      Prior to 9/11, Chinese espionage was a top concern among the nation?s
      lawmakers and security agencies.
      In May 1999, a Congressional select committee on military and commercial
      concerns with the People?s Republic of China (PRC) issued a report
      detailing the problems of Chinese espionage in the U.S. According to the
      declassified version of the report, known as the Cox Report, the primary
      targets of Chinese espionage had been the nation?s weapons laboratories,
      such as Los Alamos, Lawrence Livermore, Oak Ridge and Sandia.
      Dating back several decades ?and almost certainly continu[ing] today,? the
      report says key military technologies such as advanced thermonuclear
      weapons, the neutron bomb and an assortment of nuclear missiles had been
      taken by Chinese spies.
      ?The PRC,? says the report, ?uses a variety of techniques, including
      espionage, controlled commercial entities, and a network of individuals
      and organizations that engage in a vast array of contact with scientists,
      business people, and academics.?
      According to the FBI?s annual report, there has been a 20-30 percent rise
      in the number of Chinese espionage cases in Silicon Valley, a hotbed of
      technology innovation located south of San Francisco.
      On February 13, 2005, Time magazine reported that over 3,000 companies in
      the U.S. are suspected of gathering intelligence for the PRC. Many of
      these companies, says a source who has worked with a number of Ivy League
      Universities and associated research centers, are fronts for China?s
      ?People?s Liberation Army.?
      According to Xu Wenli, a pro-democracy advocate who was jailed for 12
      years in China, the CCP actively recruits and sends students abroad to
      gather information for the government. Some of these students then move on
      to work for military and government contractors here in the U.S.?all the
      while, gathering and sending information back to the CCP.
      More recently, however, another side of China?s spy network, one that aims
      to influence, repress, or control ideology and discussions on university
      campuses, has been highlighted.
      Chinese Communist Fronts Mobilized at U.S. Universities
      According to several academics at Yale, Harvard, Columbia University and
      the University of Pennsylvania, the CCP has been very active on U.S.
      campuses. Working primarily through on-campus student groups, they say
      Chinese consulate officials seek to silence academics critical of the CCP,
      and promote the regime as peaceful, progressive and a vital player on the
      world stage.
      According to one Ivy League scholar, Chinese consulate officials meet with
      students on campus, providing them with direction and organizing ?united
      fronts? against CCP critics.
      ?I was present at one such meeting,? said the scholar.
      As a result, lecturers at the universities offering critical analyses of
      the Chinese government have sometimes met with hecklers who would stand up
      and yell at them in the middle of their lectures. ?The aim,? says the
      scholar, ?is to not only discredit the lecturer and the subject matter,
      but also intimidate fellow students from adopting points of view critical
      of China. This has happened to me on a number of occasions.?
      According to this scholar, consulate officials also pay students to attend
      rallies and other events promoting the Beijing government. Dr. Yi Rong, a
      human rights worker in New York City concurs. ?Chinese students are paid
      and bussed in by the hundreds to form a greeting rally whenever a
      high-ranking Chinese official visits the city,? says Dr. Yi.
      In October 2002, Chinese students from several universities, including the
      University of Chicago and University of Houston, were offered free
      clothing and payment to welcome then-Chinese leader Jiang Zemin during his
      trip to Chicago and Houston. In an e-mail to the students, the Friendship
      Association of Chinese Students & Scholars described the event as a
      ?serious political task? and, according to Voice of America, required all
      participants to sign a document forfeiting their First Amendment rights
      during the event in an apparent attempt to curb any would-be protesters.
      Any one violating the agreement could be fined up to $5,000 dollars, VOA
      reported.
      The First Secretary of the Office of Tibet in New York City, (Snu) Tendar,
      says the CCP has also deployed teams of ?scholars? around the world to
      deliver lectures at major universities. Tendar says that using the forum
      of scholarly discourse and lectures, these teams have promoted pro-Beijing
      ideas, such as classifying the invasion of Tibet as a ?liberation? of the
      people from the ?feudal lords? of the Dalai Lama.
      At Columbia University, hate literature was found posted in the Asia
      Studies building, reiterating word-for-word CCP propaganda against the
      Falun Gong group. Campus police quickly disposed of the materials upon
      their discovery.
      At Yale University, a student running for president of the Association of
      Chinese Students & Scholars at Yale (ACSSY) quickly found herself a target
      of criticisms attacking her personal beliefs when it became known she
      practices Falun Gong. During a public debate on the day before the
      election, a member of the audience asked, ?If you get elected, how are we
      going to keep our relations with the Chinese consulate??
      Many of the ACSSY activities around campus are sponsored by the New York
      Chinese consulate.
      ?You?d think that an Ivy League campus would be free of this sort of
      thing,? says one graduate student at Columbia University, ?given the
      weight that dialogue, diversity, respect, and tolerance have in our
      community. But it?s pretty clear these aren?t quite traditions or values
      China?s current leadership subscribes to, and that?s why we?re seeing acts
      of hate and intimidation like these happening here, in the U.S., of all
      places.?
      CCP Repression of Falun Gong Throughout U.S.
      Outside university campuses, CCP agents or those believed to be working
      under their direction, have sought to repress and intimidate practitioners
      of Falun Gong, Tibetans and other groups perceived as a threat or vocal
      critics of the CCP.
      Acting as a volunteer spokesperson for Falun Gong in New York City, Ms.
      Gail Rachlin says her apartment has been broken into five times since the
      CCP first launched its campaign to eradicate Falun Gong in 1999. In each
      break-in, no valuables were stolen. ?Only my personal phone list?a
      rolodex?.things like that,? says Rachlin.
      On two separate occasions, Dr. Sen Nieh, a professor at Catholic
      University of America in Washington D.C and a local Falun Gong
      spokesperson, has come home to find private conversations with
      friends?which took place in public venues such as parks or
      walkways?recorded on his answering machine. The second of the two
      instances, reported in the Washington Post on July 20, 2001, was a
      conversation he had with other Falun Gong practitioners while standing
      outside a Senate building on Capitol Hill immediately after meeting with a
      senator?s staff to brief them on the persecution of Falun Gong.
      ?Obviously, they are trying to send a clear message that they are watching
      us at every moment...they?re trying to scare us,? says Dr. Nieh.
      In January 2003, Hong Lei, a spokesperson for the Chinese consulate in San
      Francisco, went on local Chinese television to say that the consulate had
      a list of all Falun Gong practitioners in the San Francisco Bay area and
      warned them not to go back to China.
      Public venues have also come under fire. Hotels in San Francisco and New
      York have been contacted by Chinese consular officials or threatened by
      unidentified callers, pressuring them not to allow Falun Gong events to be
      conducted in their facilities. In November 2004, the National Arts Club in
      New York City received several threatening phone calls, including at least
      one bomb threat, on the opening night of an art exhibit with works
      depicting the Falun Gong practice and the persecution in China.
      Several Falun Gong spokespersons have reported receiving death threats.
      There has also been actual violence.
      In September 2001, two assailants attacked Falun Gong practitioners
      conducting a sit-in outside the Chinese consulate in Chicago, beating one
      victim to the ground and tearing his clothing. Two of the assailants were
      arrested and pled guilty to battery. They were both members of an
      organization with very close ties to the Chinese consulate.
      In June 2003, a group of assailants attacked several Falun Gong
      practitioners as they demonstrated outside a restaurant in New York?s
      Chinatown. The head of a local Chinese community organization, Mr. Guan
      Jun Liang, was arrested in connection with the attack. Criminal charges
      against Liang, who personally greeted Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao when he
      visited New York in 2003, were dropped, but a civil lawsuit against Liang
      is in progress.
      Falun Gong practitioners have also been physically attacked in San
      Francisco, Toronto, and Boston.
      The United States Congress passed a concurrent resolution in September
      2004, condemning China?s actions of spying on and harassing Americans who
      practice Falun Gong, which listed instances of breaking and entering as
      well as assault and battery.
The Epoch Times | Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party
(http://www.theepochtimes.com/jiuping.asp)

                  0. Introduction

                    More than a decade after the fall of the former Soviet Union
                    and Eastern European communist regimes, the international
                    communist movement has been spurned worldwide. The demise of
                    the Chinese Communist Party is only a matter of time.
                  1. On What the Communist Party Is

                    This article concerns the impact on the civilization of
                    China of the communist movement and the Communist Party.
                    Looking at the history of China?s last 160 years, nearly one
                    hundred million people have died unnatural deaths and almost
                    all of the traditional Chinese culture and civilization have
                    been destroyed. What have been the consequences, whether the
                    CCP was chosen by the Chinese or it was imposed on China
                    from the outside?
                  2. On the Beginnings of the Chinese Communist Party

                    Why did the Communist Party emerge, grow and eventually
                    seize power in contemporary China? Did the Chinese people
                    choose the Communist Party? Or, did the Communist Party gang
                    up and force Chinese people to accept it? The CCP has set
                    itself above all, conquering all in its path, thereby
                    bringing endless catastrophe to China.
                  3. On the Tyranny of the Chinese Communist Party

                    Today the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)?s violence and
                    abuses are even more severe than those of the tyrannical Qin
                    Dynasty. The CCP?s philosophy is one of ?struggle,? and the
                    CCP?s rule has been built upon a series of ?class
                    struggles,? ?path struggles,? and ?ideological struggles,?
                    both in China and toward other nations.
                  4. On How the Communist Party Is an Anti-Universe Force

                    In the last hundred years, the sudden invasion by the
                    communist specter has created a force against nature and
                    humanity, causing limitless agony and tragedy. It has also
                    pushed civilization to the brink of destruction. It has
                    become an extremely malevolent force against the universe.
                  5. On the Collusion of Jiang Zemin with the CCP to Persecute
                  Falun Gong

                    Why is Falun Gong, which upholds the principles of
                    ?Truthfulness, Compassion and Tolerance? and has been
                    promulgated in over 60 countries worldwide, being persecuted
                    only in China, not anywhere else in the world? In this
                    persecution, what is the relationship between Jiang Zemin
                    and the CCP?
                  6. On How the Chinese Communist Party Destroyed Traditional
                  Culture

                    The CCP has devoted the nation?s resources to destroying
                    China?s rich traditional culture. The CCP?s destruction of
                    Chinese culture has been planned, well organized, and
                    systematic, made possible by the state?s use of violence.
                    Since its establishment, the CCP has never stopped
                    ?revolutionizing? Chinese culture in the attempt to
                    completely destroy its spirit.
                  7. On the Chinese Communist Party?s History of Killing

                    The 55-year history of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is
                    written with blood and lies. The stories behind this bloody
                    history are not only brutally inhumane but also rarely
                    known. Under the rule of the CCP, 60 to 80 million innocent
                    Chinese people have been killed, leaving their broken
                    families behind.
                  8. On How the Chinese Communist Party Is an Evil Cult

                    The Communist Party is essentially an evil cult that harms
                    mankind. Although the Communist Party has never called
                    itself a religion, it matches every single trait of a
                    religion. At the beginning of its establishment, it regarded
                    Marxism as the absolute truth in the world. It exhorted
                    people to engage in a life-long struggle for the goal of
                    building a ?communist heaven on earth.?
                  9. On the Unscrupulous Nature of the Chinese Communist Party

                    What is most terrifying is that the CCP is going all out to
                    try to destroy the moral foundation of the entire nation,
                    attempting to turn every Chinese national to various degrees
                    into a scoundrel in order to create an environment favorable
                    for the CCP to ?advance with time.? It is especially
                    important for us to understand clearly why the CCP acts like
                    scoundrels and to discern its criminal nature.


      Hao Fengjun Reveals Facts of the â??610 Officeâ??
      Hao Fengjun, from Model Police Officer to 610 Office Defector


      By Li Hua
      The Epoch Times


      Jun 19, 2005


            Hao Fengjun being interviewed (The Epoch Times)
      MELBOURNE - Hao Fengjun never thought his visit to Melbourneâ??s Epoch Times
      office on June 4, 2005 would send shock waves throughout Western society.
      Hao chose to step forward to tell people why he defected from his post as
      a police officer in Chinaâ??s notorious 610 Office. He risked his own and
      his familyâ??s lives to help people understand the situation in China.

      A Model Police Officer at the Public Security Bureau Branch Office
      Hao Fengjun was once a model police officer. He believes that law
      enforcement is a sacred profession. As a child he loved martial arts and
      dreamed of becoming a policeman. He realized this dream when, in 1994, he
      graduated from the Department of Law in Nankai University and joined the
      Heping district branch of public security bureau in Tianjin city.
      â??I was a public security police officer in Heping district, Tianjin city
      from 1994 to 2000. I thought a policeman should punish evil, encourage
      kindness and promote righteousness. This is how I thought and this is how
      I worked. I received excellent ratings almost every year. I solved two
      large-scale drug-deals and several robbery cases and was awarded Detective
      Third Grade. In the chief police officer election in 1998, I was elected
      to be a first-level police officer. I led over a dozen policemen from my
      office to protect the area. I felt that I had reached the peak of my
      career.â??
      No Policeman Wants to Work at the â??610 Officeâ??
      In October 2000, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) transformed the Tianjin
      public security division into a public security bureau. This was a
      combination of the former department of administration and security with
      the mechanism of the â??610 Office.â?? (Editorsâ?? Note: the â??610 Officeâ?? is a
      Gestapo-like special security force charged with â??eradicatingâ?? the
      practice of Falun Gong, using any means however brutal.) The change
      improved the ability of the â??610 Officeâ?? to suppress the meditation
      practice Falun Gong. The â??610 Officeâ?? has the power to issue orders to
      outside organizations and conduct other organizationsâ?? investigations.
      Although the â??610 Officeâ?? openly recruited within the public security
      system, it received only one application. The Tianjin public security
      bureau came up with a solution- to arbitrarily transfer people. Under
      orders from the Tianjin public security bureau, each branch office uses a
      computer program to pick at random which employees have to transfer to the
      municipal security bureau. If the person fails to register at the
      municipal security bureau, he will be dismissed from work. Unfortunately
      Hao Fengjun was selected and transferred to the place that nobody wants to
      be.
      610ï¼? The Nightmare Begins
      The first day that Hao Fengjun stepped into the â??610 Officeâ??, he knew it
      was not the right place for him.
      When he joined the â??610 Officeâ?? in October of 2000, there were over 40
      people in one office. Hao Fengjunâ??s boss handed him a thick stack of
      records, including details about the supposed crimes of Tianjin Falun Gong
      practitioners and the CCPâ??s guidelines about Falun Gong. Haoâ??s boss asked
      the newly transferred 27-year-old young man to â??learn, study and memorizeâ??
      the materials in order to build a â??solid foundationâ?? for future
      assignments requiring him to persecute Falun Gong.
      â??They tried to brainwash me. It goes on every day,â?? Hao Fengjun said. â??I
      was never able to put my heart into it or sit still. I knew the â??610
      Officeâ?? monitored, arrested, and persecuted innocent people such as Falun
      Gong practitioners and other dissidents. I was tired of it. In the end I
      just showed up at the office but I did not do any work. I didnâ??t think
      this was the kind of job that a true policeman would do. Whenever I could
      no longer read the materials and wanted to walk around, seniors in the
      office who were quietly reading the newspaper would turn around and look
      at me. I felt suffocated.â??
      The seniors at the â??610 Officeâ??s are CCP cadres who have worked for years
      in the department of administration and security. According to Hao, they
      regard punishing dissidents for the CCP as their career. They do not trust
      the young men who have transferred from local offices. Hao said he could
      not always escape by walking around the office and had to learn to bear
      it.
      He wasnâ??t happy at home either. The excitement he once felt from solving
      cases was replaced with silence and despair.
      â??In the â??610 Officeâ?? people talked to each other with their hands covering
      their mouth. They keep their voices low and are always looking around.
      After being in such an environment for a long time, people even talked
      like this in public. People are always afraid of being heard and are
      paranoid, as if they have mental problems.â??
      The â??610 Officeâ?? Has a Yearly Arrest Quota
      When Hao Fengjun started to work for the â??610 Officeâ?? he was assigned to
      the 1st Team. â??As a member of the â??610 Officeâ?? my job was to guide and
      coordinate with local offices to crack down on Falun Gong and analyze
      collected materials.â??
      A lot of information came from overseas. Hao Fengjun said, â??The Australian
      government has been saying that only the key Falun Gong members would be
      dealt with [by the CCP] and ordinary practitioners would not be punished.
      I think the Australian government does not understand the true nature of
      the CCP. If it only targets key members, it should be limited to a
      small-scale operation and would not involve every level of the police
      force. If it were a small-scale operation, the authorities would not care
      about what practitioners in other parts of the world are doing. However,
      Falun Gong practitioners all over the world are under CCP surveillance. I
      personally received intelligence information about Falun Gong
      practitioners in Australia, the United States and Canada. The CCP collects
      information on overseas Falun Gong practitioners. They hope to develop
      strategies and policies to dissolve the Falun Gong group internationally,
      eventually eliminating the group.â??
      The CCPâ??s monitoring of Falun Gong includes those practitioners who live
      in Tianjin. â??Over 30,000 Falun Gong practitioners in Tianjin have been
      registered. Every year superiors give the police a 10-percent quota. This
      means that the number of people the police detain, put into forced labor
      camps, juvenile re-education camps, or brainwashing classes must be 10
      percent of the total number of practitioners. Take 30,000 Falun Gong
      practitioners as an example. Ten percent is 3,000 practitioners.â?? So Hao
      had to arrest, detain and brutally â??transformâ?? eight or ten Falun Gong
      practitioners every day.
      Since November 2004 when The Epoch Times published the series of editorial
      articles the â??Nine Commentaries on the Communist Partyâ??, the â??610 Officeâ??
      has had additional work.
      â??The â??610 Officeâ?? of the public security bureau is responsible for
      monitoring and analyzing those who resign from the CCP. Every resignation
      published on the Epoch Times Tuidang (Quit the CCP) website is reviewed by
      the city where it was posted. The Tianjin public security bureau has a
      Falun Gong database with 30,000 Falun Gong practitionersâ?? records. They
      monitor the withdrawal website every day. For example, every day a report
      with a list of names that resigned from the CCP is generated. They search
      the Falun Gong database for matched names and more information, including
      which local office they belong to. The information is passed to the local
      office and the local office then handles the cases. In that way, whoever
      publishes a resignation with their real name will be arrested.â??
      All News about Falun Gong Coming from the â??610 Officeâ?? is Fake
      â??Since I did not want to get involved in these activities and did not want
      to pressure local offices, I was not able to complete my quota. From a
      policeman who got rewards every year, I gradually became a policeman who
      failed to meet the requirements of the â??610 Officeâ?? and who finally lost
      his job as a police officer. I was demoted to the support staff.â??
      Hao Fengjun went on: â??Actually the staff at the branch level is not
      willing to persecute the detainees that they work with every day. Falun
      Gong practitioners could be their next-door neighbors. How could they
      possibly detain them? And they did not do anything wrong - how could we do
      it?â??
      After witnessing Sun Ti, a Falun Gong practitioner, being beaten by the
      police at the â??610 Officeâ?? (Case 103 by the â??610 Officeâ??), Hao Fengjun
      felt that he could not work there any more. â??Sun Ti was one of more than
      70 Falun Gong practitioners that had been arrested. I saw her sitting on a
      bench in the interrogation room. Her eyes were practically swollen shut.
      The interrogator was Mu Ruili, the 2nd team leader of the â??610 Office.' He
      had in his hands a steel rod 1.5 centimeters in diameter. On the desk was
      a high-voltage electric baton. After I came into the room, Mu Ruili was
      ordered to leave. Sun Ti cried. She lifted her blouse and showed us her
      wounds. Because she was a woman I wanted to leave. She asked me to stay
      and said that she only wanted to show me. She turned around and lifted up
      her clothes. I was shocked. There was not one piece of normal skin in her
      back. Her back was all black and blue with two 20-centimeter-long cuts
      oozing blood.
      â??At that moment, I felt my heart break.
      â??I once told my boss that I was incapable of doing this job. I asked him
      to let me go back to the local office. My boss said: â??Thatâ??s not going to
      happen. It took us so long to collect these people and we still need more
      help. How can I let you go? Once you are here, you cannot leave.â?? In the
      end, my boss did transfer me to a team that does not handle Falun Gong
      cases, the 4th team. Later I became my bossâ?? driver.
      â??The CCP said that it treats Falun Gong like â??breeze and rain during
      spring time,' and like a parent disciplining their children. I would just
      like to know: Would parents starve their children and beat them to death?
      â??Ordinary people canâ??t see the truth about Falun Gong. They only hear
      slurs the CCP has invented about how Falun Gong is harmful to people,
      inventions such as the â??self-immolation incident in Tiananmen Squareâ??[1]
      and the Beggar Murderer cases (in which a series of murders committed by a
      man with a long history of mental problems was blamed on Falun Gong.) The
      CCP wants people to think that Falun Gong is an evil cult. The government
      blames all societyâ??s ills on Falun Gong.
      â??The CCPâ??s media only broadcasts pictures of very clean and neat labor
      camps with policeman treating Falun Gong practitioners humanely. They say
      the governmentâ??s compassionate treatment moves Falun Gong practitioners to
      tears. All those scenes are fabricated. The people you see might not be
      genuine Falun Gong practitioners. I saw the making of one of these
      fabricated TV programs. One CCTV (China Central TV) reporter interviewed
      the Falun Gong practitioner Jing Zhanyi in our bureau. Even the â??610â??
      policemen thought the things Jing Zhanyi said were completely untrue. I
      witnessed how the head of our bureau â??taughtâ?? Mr. Jing what to say before
      the interview. He threatened Mr. Jing that if he failed to say what he was
      told, Jingâ??s detention would be extended. Mr. Jing recited his lines like
      an actor.â??
      Being against the CCP Is Not Betraying China
      Hao Fengjun made up his mind to leave the control of the CCP and explore
      the democracy and freedom in the West. He finally arrived in Melbourne on
      February 15, 2005, and applied for asylum. In Australia on June 8, Hao
      Fengjun publicly announced his resignation from the CCP in front of the
      media.
      Hao Fengjun said, â??The thing that touches me the most is that the
      Australian people can say what they want when they want, anything from joy
      to anger. But in China it is impossible for people to express their
      feelings. There is no medium for them to vent their joy or anger. They do
      not have that freedom. They have to bear their suffering silently.
      â??Someone accused me and Chen Yongli of betraying China. I want to ask this
      person: If in Australia the Green Party or the Labor Party disagrees with
      John Howardâ??s policies, do you think it is unpatriotic? The notion that
      being against the CCP means that you are against China is the result of
      the CCPâ??s incessant brainwashing.
      â??I love my country and the Chinese people. It is a beautiful country with
      abundant resources. But I am against the way the CCP treats the Chinese
      people and I am against its prosecution of dissidents. Several days ago I
      quit the CCP and other CCP related organizations - the Youth League and
      the Young Pioneers. All of a sudden I felt light and relieved. I felt as
      refreshed as grass covered in early morning dew.â??
      Advice to Chinese People in Australia
      Hao Fengjun said: â??Life in Australia is tougher than life in China. The
      reason I came here is not to seek a better material life, but to look for
      a way to extricate myself from the heavy burden of my experiences. I want
      to expose their dark nature to the people of the world so they will have a
      better understanding of the CCP.â??
      â??As a former employee of the CCPâ??s public security system, I recognize the
      fabrications of my ex-coworkers when I read them in news articles. I hope
      those who know the truth about the CCP will tell the truth. Those who work
      as the CCPâ??s mouthpiece and do secret work for the CCP, please step down.
      Your behavior and your articles clearly expose you. Your intention is well
      known. When the CCP collapses, how will you face your own people?â??
      Note:
      [1] On January 23, 2001, a small group of people apparently set themselves
      on fire in Chinaâ??s Tiananmen Square. The state-run Xinhua news agency
      reported the incident with unusual speed, claiming that the immolators
      were practitioners of the Falun Gong spiritual practice. Evidence shows
      that this incident was staged, a ploy used to turn public opinion against
      a group already persecuted for their beliefs.

****The Statements of Defecting Chinese Sparks Debate in Canadian Parliament******

Following the statements made by defecting Chinese agents about the Chinese spy network
in Canada, the threat of Chinese spies in Canada is getting more recognition from the government.

According to Hao Fengiun, a former â??610 Officeâ?? agent in China, there are over 1000 agents in Canada
whose primary task is to imform on Falun Gong and other religious grougs persecuted by the Chinese
government.

Conservative leader Stephen Harper pressed Prime Minister Paul Martin in the House of Commons
Wednesday for not doing more to protect Canadians and defend the nation's soverignty from foreign agents.

â??Today the former head of the CSIS [Canadian Security and Intelligence Service] Asia desk confirmed
reports from defectors that close to 1000 Chinese government agent spies have infiltrated Canada,â??
said Harper.

â??Did the Prime Minister explicitly raise this violation of our sovereignty when he met with leading
Chinese government officials in Beijing earlier this year?â?? Asked Harper.

The Prime Minister indicated that he did raise the issue when he met with Chinese officials.

      Chen Yonglin: CCP Believes Australian Government Can Be Bought
      Jun 24, 2005


      Picture:Chen Yonglin at the press conference on June 22, 2005 (The Epoch
            Times)
      When Chen Yonglin, the former Chinese Communist Party (CCP) diplomat
      seeking asylum in Australia, first announced his intention to defect, he
      told the world about the close relationship between the CCP and the
      Australian government, and stressed that the CCP operates a 1,000 person
      spy network in Australia. Since then the media has been trying to follow
      up on this sensitive topic, but Chen has remained silent. On June 22nd
      Chen held a press conference during which he began to elaborate on his
      knowledge of the dealings between the two governments. What follows are
      excerpts of Chen speaking at the conference.
      China Seeks To Make Australia Part of Its ?Great Border Area?
      ?In February of 2005, Zhou Wenzhong, the Chinese Vice Minister of Foreign
      Affairs, held a meeting at the Chinese Embassy in Australia with the
      ambassadors and consuls general to Australia and New Zealand, and the
      general consuls and the diplomats in charge of political affairs. I
      accompanied Qiu Shaofang, the general consul of the Chinese consulate in
      Sidney, to attend the meeting.
      ?The main purpose of the meeting was to implement the decision made during
      the 10th Meeting of the Chinese Diplomats in Foreign Counties held in
      mid-August of 2004, at the suggestion of Hu Jintao, the General Secretary
      of the CCP, to make Australia part of the ?Great Border Area? of China.
      They asked each consulate to provide its point of view and suggestions for
      the next step.
      ?During the meeting, Zhou Wenzhong shared information about the CCP
      Central Government?s strategic planning toward Australia and the United
      States, which is related to the close ties between these two countries.
      The CCP wants to break through the military union of the two countries and
      turn Australia into a second France. It hopes to shape Australia into a
      country that dares to say ?no? to the United States.
      ?China first started crafting its plan to reshape Australia when it
      learned that Australia was planning to give up ties with Asia in favor of
      stronger ties with the United States. At that time the free trade
      negotiations between Australia and the United States were at a climax and
      Australia had high hopes of being included in the North America Free Trade
      Agreement (NAFTA). Meanwhile, Australia had a big court case pending with
      Guangdong Province in China, concerning natural gas, which was making it
      less and less popular with the Chinese government.
      ?In March of 2003 Tang Jaixuan, the Chinese Minister of Foreign Affairs,
      visited Australia and questioned the Australian government on certain
      issues, including issues related to Falun Gong. On the day before Tang
      Jiaxuan arrived in Canberra, Alexander Downer, the Australian Minister for
      Foreign Affairs, signed an article banning Falun Gong practitioners from
      setting up signs and banners or using loud speakers to protest in front of
      the Chinese embassy. Since then Downer has continued to sign similar
      articles every month, which has made Tang Jiaxuan very happy.
      ?That same year, China initiated the celebration of the 30-year
      anniversary of the establishment of the relationship between China and
      Australia. The Chinese government sent many groups to Australia to promote
      Chinese culture and political ideology.
      ?In 2003 when Hu Jintao visited Australia he received unprecedented
      treatment in Canberra. Bob Brown, a congressmen belonging to the Greens-
      the opposition party- was not allowed to enter the building where congress
      was being held. This was done to prevent the attendance of dissidents and
      Falun Gong practitioners that might have shown up as the congressman?s
      guests. Hu Jintao was delighted and commented to his staff that this was a
      sign that the Australian government could be influenced.
      ?In 2005 when Wu Bangguo visited Australia, he requested the same
      treatment? not to see or hear any protestors or dissidents. Next Year,
      China plans to send Chinese Prime Minister Wen Jiabao to visit Australia,
      and in 2007 Hu Jintao will be in Australia to attend the World Economic
      Summit.?
      The CCP Thinks The Australian Government Can Be Bought
      ?Over the past several years, Chinese officials have successfully built
      close personal relationships with their Australian counterparts, all for
      the purpose of establishing leverage in the Australian government. The CCP
      is convinced that the Australian government can be coerced to follow its
      aims through application of economic pressures and incentives. It plans to
      use economic pressure to force Australia to cave on political and human
      rights issues.

      ?The dialogue on human rights between China and Australia over the past
      several years was merely a show put on to appease the Australian public.
      In fact, there was no progress made. When high-ranking Australian
      officials visited China, they did not raise any human right issues. I knew
      what was said during their visits, because a summary news brief of each
      visit was sent to the consulate.?
      Australian Minister for Foreign Affairs Helped the CCP to Wriggle Out of a
      Difficult Lawsuit
      ?Due to the nature of my work as a diplomat, I have witnessed many
      instances of secret dealing between the Chinese and Australian
      governments, and such knowledge has weighed heavily on my conscience. I
      know that the Australian Minister for Foreign Affairs and the Chinese
      Embassy in Canberra share all of their information with each other. The
      Australian Minister for Foreign Affairs even gives suggestions to the
      Chinese government on how to handle difficult political issues.
      ?For example, Zhang Cuiying, a Falun Gong practitioner, lodged a lawsuit
      in the Supreme Court of New South Wales against the former Chinese
      president and the 6-10 Office for genocide, torture and crimes against
      humanity. Based on an article of the national amnesty code of Australia,
      the lawsuit was not handled by the Department of Foreign Affairs and
      Trade, but by a special substitute process. This greatly embarrassed the
      Chinese government and caused it much distress, because it did not want to
      have to face Falun Gong practitioners in open court proceedings.
      ?To help the CCP, the Australian Department for Foreign Affairs and Trade
      provided several solutions. Dr. Geoff Raby, Deputy Secretary of the
      Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, promised the Chinese
      government that when he visited China in March, 2005 that he would ask for
      the materials from the Supreme Court, cancel the lawsuit by the Falun Gong
      practitioners and put an end to the charges against the Chinese leader.
      Raby later regretted making this offer.
      ?The Department for Foreign Affairs and Trade offered another solution: to
      have the Chinese government send a representative to stand trial in place
      of the leader, and thus expedite the lawsuit. The Chinese government did
      not adopt this suggestion and instead decided to put pressure on the
      ministry, which resulted in the ministry?s cooperation in preparing many
      legal documents to assist the CCP.?
      Chen ended the press conference with this comment: ?I have witnessed too
      many secret deals between the Australian and Chinese governments. I am
      really concerned that I will be betrayed. Therefore, in case I should run
      into sudden misfortune, I have spoken my mind to the public.?
