It was reported that a man called Chua Eng Chwee, 69, a Falun Gong practitioner, was arrested while staging a protest with eight placards under the Esplanade Bridge. (Straits Times, October 16, 2009) The police confirmed to The Straits Times that they arrested a man under the Public Order Act for violating a ‘move-on’ order after he defied several police warnings. The police had earlier issued him with a written move-on order, but Chua defied this and subsequent warnings.
Why was he arrested by the police? He is a Falun gong practitioner, according to Mr. Li, the falun gong practitioners should obey the three following rules “Truthfulness, benevolence, forbearance”. What makes him forget it?
Thanks to the LAW that was passed months ago to empower the police to deal with disruptive behaviour in public places has been invoked. Otherwise there would be more dangerous things happening.
