The South Korea Falun Dafa Association (SKFDA) held a press conference. SKFDA says that Li is actually a human rights abuser who was prosecuted in several countries. The exhibition, Chinese Seal Cutting & Calligraphy Art by Li Lanqing, was organized by the Chinese Embassy in Seoul. The exhibition was held at the Seoul Calligraphy Art Museum on Nov. 15. The Chinese ambassador attended the open ceremony. Overseas media reported that a manager of the Metropolitan Museum of art has said he was contacted by the Chinese regime. They offered many favorable conditions in hopes of holding Li's calligraphy exhibition in the museum. After experts assessed Li's arts, they refused the exhibition due to his art being merely at amateur level. Zhao Yuanming, China-based senior legal expert: "Actually, his seal cutting and calligraphy arts are far from professional standard. Because of his official identity, he used his calligraphy arts show to deceive people. I think no matter where, South Korea or other places, he held the exhibitions, likely to promote himself showing how he loves traditional culture." On Nov. 18, SKFDA declared in a press conference that at beginning of the persecution of Falun Gong, Li actively followed Jiang Zemin's persecution policy. The Seoul Calligraphy Art Museum is the only exclusive calligraphy exhibition hall in the world to display such works for a human rights abuser who owes many Falun Gong practitioners' blood-debts. They have been fooled and are cheating the Korean nations." Li Lanqing has been sued in many countries for the crime of torture, inhumanity and genocide. Among the list of 119 persons who persecute Falun Gong, Li was ranked in the top five. The Royal Canadian Mounted Police has put him on their watch list. Once he enters Canada, he could immediately face investigation. Lin Zixu, current affairs commentator: "Li Lanqing has participated in the persecution of Falun Gong dozens of years ago. He perhaps didn't expect that 14 years have passed, and his crimes are like his shadow—inseparable. The 610 Office is notorious in the world. Li Lanqing was the first head of this illegal organization. In this regard, Li will be set at the pillar of humiliation in the history." Sources say that Li was Jiang Zemin's favorite confidant during Jiang's tenure. He also had improper relationships with many women. In 2002, he hired an actress in Kunming, thus he was reported to Central Commission for Discipline Inspection. However, Jiang protected him so he could get away with it. On July 20, 1999, Jiang Zemin launched a Falun Gong persecution policy. At that time, six members of the politburo standing committee didn't agree, including Li Lanqing. Son of Li Lanqing has committed crimes, he was involved in one billion yuan corruption. However, Jiang Zemin protected him from punishment. Thus Li became the head of the 610 Office which is specially designed to persecute Falun Gong. Meanwhile, Li used his deputy premier identity, binding other departments and officials involved in the persecution. Zhang Yijie, former director in Ministry of Foreign Economic Relations and Trade: "There was a brainwashing center in the central regime. It was very evil, it was specially designed to transform officials who worked in central government. Everyday, Jiang Zemin and Li Lanqing read newsletters about the brainwashing center." Zhang Yijie hasn't been transformed by the 610 Office. She encountered over 80 torture methods. Li was angry that Zhang hadn't been transformed. Thus, Li sent Zhang to Beijing Women's Labor Camp. Zhang Yijie: "The worst time was being separated from the outside world. They held me in a dark room for 24 hours without daylight. I was forced to stand for 42 days and nights, not allowed to sleep. They did not allow me to use the toilet, which resulted in incontinence. What kind of status was I at during that time? I just held one thought, I would rather die than to give up my faith." Zhang upheld her faith and two years and four months later, she left Beijing Women's Labor Camp. According to minghui.org, as of November 2013, more than 3,733 Falun Gong practitioners identified by their name were tortured to death. In an investigation report written by Canadian human rights lawyer David Matas, Matas estimated that more than 65,000 Falun Gong practitioners may have been killed for their organs. 《神韵》2013世界巡演新亮点 http://www.ShenYunPerformingArts.org/
