“A Providential Coincidence in Modern Chinese History: The Falun Gong and CDP”

“A Providential Coincidence in Modern Chinese History: The Falun Gong and CDP”
By Timothy Cooper, Executive Director, Worldrights

“A providential coincidence of modern Chinese history may have aligned the strategic interests of two profoundly important but different groups of persecuted Chinese nationals who have suffered the same unhappy fate. Ten years of unrelenting state-sponsored repression against two sets of innocent nationals — one political, the other nonpolitical — may have, ironically, set the stage to potentially advance the well-being of both in the common cause of ending unchecked human rights oppression in China.”

“These two independent groups — linked only by national identity and vitality of purpose as well as their common faith in a more benign future for China — include courageous exiled leaders and mainland supporters of the China Democratic Party (CDP), together with the well-organized and intelligent members of the Falun Gong, which boasts more members worldwide than the entire Chinese Communist Party.”
