An 80-year-old Woman Awakens 20,000 Chinese People

A strong belief in truth, and a wish to help others, motivated an elderly woman to dedicate her life to a mission of “waking people up” to the nature of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), and persuading them to reject it.

Mrs. Zhu felt the need to expose the atrocities taking place in China and wake Chinese people up to the nature of the regime. “I must rush, before the CCP’s disintegration, to tell the truth behind the CCP to Communist Party members, Communist Youth League members, and Young Pioneers (a CCP organization for children), to save them from being punished along with the CCP.”

Armed with her lunchbox and her cart loaded with literature about the persecution. “Daily, I try to tell every Chinese I meet whether I am walking or on the bus.”

Mrs. Zhu believes the number of people quitting the CCP is rising rapidly because people are becoming clearer on the true nature of the CCP, and they no longer fear it. She shared some of her more memorable experiences:

One time, while “clarifying the truth”—meaning to tell people about the persecution of Falun Gong—near the Chinese consulate, she helped a Chinese woman in her thirties to quit the CCP. Then, a while later the same woman returned, seeking help for her sister to quit the CCP. She told Mrs. Zhu that her sister wanted to quit the CCP but she did not have time to go to the center; Mrs. Zhu took her name down and later entered it on the Internet database at tuidang.dajiyuan.com

Another time Mrs. Zhu was working outside of the Chinese consulate, a Chinese man walking into the consulate treated her very negatively. She still greeted him warmly and when he came out, Mrs. Zhu told him, “I hope you have a great future and I don’t mean anything else; it’s really just for your own good.” The man calmed down and asked her what was the use in quitting the CCP. After Mrs. Zhu told him the reasons why, he was convinced, and renounced the Communist Youth League.

Chinese tourists pass by Mrs. Zhu’s stations in various areas throughout Melbourne. Some are unpleasant toward her. While explaining the nature of Falun Gong and the CCP’s persecution to a group of tourists, one of them who looked like a Chinese official told Mrs. Zhu that he already knew about the CCP and told her he would not quit—and walked away. 

Mrs. Zhu continued to talk to him. “I didn’t want to give up, so I followed and talked more about the corruption of the CCP and then he said, ‘I know.’ Later he became angry and said, ‘I know what the CCP is, and how Falun Gong is persecuted.’ I asked him to quit and he agreed to quit with his pen name.”

At the end of each day, she tallies the number of people she convinced to quit. After seven years she estimates that she has convinced 20,000 people to renounce the Chinese Communist Party.
