Speech at Rally to Support 24 Million Chinese Quit the CCP

by Thongchanh Boulom

Mr. President, Ladies and Gentlemen,

It is a great honor for me to be here and express my congratulations on 24 million Chinese men and women who are struggling for human rights and democracy in China by quitting the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).

This event is very important and vital to us, freedom fighters. Through these magnificent actions, we will send a strong message to the members of the communist parties all over the world that: 24 million men and women are on their way towards democracy and human rights for themselves; as well as setting our sights on all of humanity enjoying democracy in the near future.

Today, we are here to protest the outlawing of Falun Gong practitioners by former dictator Jiang Zemin started on July 20, 1999. Following this decree, many crimes against people have been committed in China, particularly the organ harvesting of Falun Gong practitioners. 24 Million former CCP members and Falun Gong practitioners will unite together in order to become an ocean of men and women which will submerge and drown the community party in China because the goal of these men and women is democracy and the freedom to conduct their own civil liberties.

On behalf of the United League for Democracy of Laos (President Bounthanh Rathina), the Alliance for Democracy of Asians in USA and Vietnamese American Community (Mr. Tan Van Nguyen), Free Khmer (Mr. Thach Yen), I would like to say thank you to the organizer of this Rally today.

As you know, China, Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam are closed society lockdown by the clique designated communist parties: “the so called governments”. For them, human rights are the number one enemy. As we have seen from different angles of the camera taking pictures of difference faces of China, either by National Chinese or foreign journalists all demonstrate that all walks of life are difficult and are sardined into one cell. These countries look like giant prisons holding all their citizens, while facing forced imprisonment by their national army and police.

Ladies and Gentlemen, The alliance for democracy of Asians in USA understands the aspiration of the imprisoned citizens in their own countries. That is why we support Falun Gong practitioners to request their freedom of practice and will stand by their side with people of Cambodia, China, Laos and Vietnam to struggle for the same goal, Such as:

Good Governance
Human Rights
Democratic constitution
Independence of Justice system

Thank you.

Thongchanh Boulom
Treasurer of The Alliance for democracy of Asians in USA
General Secretary of the United League for democracy of Laos.
