China is still in a campaign to wipe out the negative influence of the Falun Gong cult headed by Li Hongzhi, which was outlawed in July. In Jiangsu Province, east China, colleges and universities are trying to help Falun Gong practitioners, especially teachers and other senior intellectuals, to get aware of the heresies of the cult. The Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics in the province's capital sent educational materials to the homes of student practitioners, and asked their parents to help students understand the evil nature of the Falun Gong cult. Teachers and students at the Hebei Normal University, in north China, held a forum recently to expose and criticize the fallacies spread by the cult. A neighborhood committee in Dongsheng Street in Changchun, capital of northeast China's Jilin Province, helped 104 Falun Gong followers alter their erroneous opinions and adopt a healthy lifestyle by solving real problems in their life. In another development, the public security department in Shenyang, capital of Liaoning Province in northeast China, seized a number of illegal Falun Gong propaganda sheets from some practitioners. |
