By a Falun Dafa Practitioner in Malaysia
(Clearwisdom.net) Falun Gong practitioners held a Chinese
New Year parade in Bukit Gambir, Malaysia on Feb. 16, 2010. The
parade, composed of the Divine Land Marching Band, Celestial
Maidens Troupe and Waist Drum Troupe, sent New Year greetings to
the local residents.
Falun Gong practitioners extend their New Year
Greetings to local residents in Bukit Gambir with a parade. Spectators are fascinated by the Falun Gong
parade. Event organizer Mr. Chen said the parade received great support
from local police, Village Head and celebrities. After seeing such
a grand parade, the Village Head told Mr. Chen the next time they
[Falun Gong practitioners] planned to hold a parade, they could
notify him early so that he could open the stadium for them and
arrange for media reports. A local volunteer organization, RELA, took the initiative to
help. Mr. Chen was very appreciative of their assistance. After
watching the parade, a local celebrity invited Falun Gong
practitioners to hold the parade one more time following a
different route. Falun Gong practitioners made arrangement right
away. Their first route covered main streets. The second route
started from Stadium and passed through the whole town. This was the first time for local residents to see such a
parade. They were happy the parade brought a holiday atmosphere and
Chinese culture to their town. Mrs. Huang and her husband Mr. Jiang
stopped their car and watched the parade happily. It was the first
time she had seen such a large-scale street activity there. They
enjoyed everything, including the costumes and music. The
traditional Chinese culture brought by the parade was refreshing to
local residents.
