Chinese Diplomat Step out to Expose Communist Regime at Sydney 6.4 Rally
--- Chinese Communist Party is collapsing from Inside 2 million people quit CCP

June 4, 2005 marks the 16th anniversary of Tiananmen Student Massacre.
Australian Democrats,
Greens representatives and human rights groups spoke at the Rally that intends
to remember
the pro-democracy students killed on Tiananmen Square and 80 million people
killed by the
Chinese Communist Party (CCP) since it came to power, and also to celebrate an
anticipation of
collapse of CCP--the last large communist regime in the world today.

One of the feature speakers is a senior Chinese diplomat from the Chinese
Consulate in Sydney,
Mr. Chen Yonglin, who made his first public appearance at a June 4th
Commemoration rally
since he and his family had left the Chinese Consulate a week ago to defect. Mr.
Chen told the
rally that he went to defect for fear of persecution since had become
disillusioned and could no
longer support CCP's persecution of democratic group and religious group
Falun Gong.

It is learned that, on June 6, 2005 Mr. Chen and his wife Jin Ping also
published an open
statement to announce withdrawing from the Chinese Communist Party membership on
the
relevant web site provided by Epoch Times: http://tuidang.epochtimes.com/.
Currently, an
average of 20,000 people per day are publicly declaring their resignation from
the Party or its
affiliate organisations. By June 4, 2005, more than 2 Million people have quit
the Chinese
Communist Party.

Ms. Zhao from "June 4 rally organizing committee" of "Free
China" praised Mr. Chen for his
courage to speak out the truth and refuse to continue carrying out the
persecution and terrorism
policy of CCP. "Mr. Chen's defect is just a small corner of the
iceberg, showing that Chinese
Communist regime is collapsing from the inside. Mr. Chen is just one out of
millions of Chinese
people, including high-ranking officials and diplomats who disagree with the
persecution and
mistreatments of its own people by CCP and choose to leave it. " Ms. Zhao
said, "We hope
Australian government could provide protection to Mr. Chen and his family as we
have promised
to support human rights. " Ms. Zhao commented, "More importantly, we
ask for Australian
government and people to support Chinese people's efforts for real freedom
and better future
without CCP. There won't be real safety and freedom for Mr. Chen and all the
Chinese people
without the collapse of CCP."

The recent flood of departures has been attributed to an exclusive report by The
Epoch Times
called the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party.  Published in over 30
countries, the
extraordinary report reveals the CCP's mass public deception, the untold
killings and the
CCP's pursuit to destroy traditional culture. 

An marking difference of this 16th's anniversary from previous ones is that
this year, disappointed
Chinese people stop begging CCP for change or mercy, and instead, realizing the
terrorism
nature and hopelessness of CCP, Chinese people choose to farewell to CCP and
look for real
freedom and better future to China without CCP. Being the greatest freedom
movement since
1989, the large-scale withdrawal from CCP and the anticipation of the collapse
of the Communist
in China have marked the significant difference of this 16th anniversary, an
event that would be
even more significant than the 1989 fall of the Berlin Wall.

Background:

On June 4, 2005, the 16th anniversary of Tiananmen Student Massacre, Mr. Chen
Yonglin, a
former 1st Secretary and Consul for Political Affairs, after defecting from
Chinese Consulate a
week ago for fear of persecution due to his sympathy with Falun Gong group and
democratic
group, made his public appearance at a rally marking the Tiananmen student
massacre and
support freedom of Chinese people, that was organized by "Free China"
along with other
human rights groups. Mr. Chen told the media that he would be persecuted if
returned to
Beijing and hoped that the Australian Government would help to protect him.

Mr. Chen said that he had met with officials of the Australian Department of
Foreign Affairs (DFAT)
on four days ago but that they had refused him political asylum, and told him to
apply for a
refugee protection visa instead.

Mr. Chen told the media that the CCP has "thousands" of secret agents
in Australia who monitor
and report on political dissidents and Falun Gong practitioners, and try to
interfere with their
activities in Australia. He said this is normal policy for the Chinese
Government. Mr. Chen
promised to reveal to Australians "everything I know" about threats by
Chinese agents to the
Australian society and its people". According to Mr. Chen, he had details
of several kidnappings
of Chinese defectors or dissidents from Australia, and said that two of them had
been sentenced
to death in China. Mr. Chen said that he feared that the same thing would happen
to him if he
and his family were not given asylum.
