Several government organizations held a symposium in Beijing on Friday to voice their indignation at the crimes committed by Falun Gong.

Participants are from the Overseas Chinese Affairs Committee of the top Chinese legislature, NPC, the Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan Affairs Committee of the Chinese consultative body CPPCC, the office of Overseas Chinese Affairs of the State Council and other Central Committee of China Zhi Gong Party and the All China Federation of Returned Overseas Chinese.

Some speakers said that Li Hongzhi and his Falun Gong cult have already become a political instrument of the anti-China forces overseas. They maintained the cult has tried to instigate those misled member to disturb social stability and fight against the government and the people. They described the fight against Falun Gong as a battle between truth and evil. Participants at the symposium called on all overseas Chinese organizations to support the Chinese government's action of banning Falun Gong, and to continue the fight to ensure social stability, the smooth progress of the country's economic construction and the opening up to the outside world.
