 澳洲國會會見綠黨領袖 Bob Brown 參議員 |
尊敬的澳洲外長Marise Payne參議員：
事由：王怡牧師和成都秋雨聖約教會
民主中國陣線致函於您是為以上之事，關於近期中共當局針對地下教會宗教活動進行的抓捕行動。
民陣希望此事引起您的關注。
根據可靠的消息來源和報導，中國警方在聖誕節前夕對拒絕服從中共政治路線的牧師和教會進行新一輪的鎮壓行動，震驚世界。已經在這一波鎮壓行動中拘留近100人，王怡牧師和他的妻子也在其中。
王怡先生（1973年6月出生）是成都中國家庭教會秋雨教會的牧師。他也是一位富有成效的作家、編輯和社會活動家，在就任牧師職位之前，他曾在成都大學研讀法律。
王怡於2006年初訪問澳大利亞，時任獨立中文筆會秘書長，與當時的會長2010年諾貝爾和平獎獲得者劉曉波博士共同主持筆會，同年還在美國首都華盛頓收到當時的美國總統小布什在白宮的熱情接待。
民陣就習近平北京政府對地下教會實施迫害對牧師進行抓捕表示強烈憤慨並予以譴責，民陣呼籲澳洲政府為王怡牧師及其他被拘留的主內兄弟姊妹向習近平北京政府提出交涉，譴責習近平及其政府的反人權行徑，並要求立即釋放被拘捕人士，來自澳洲和全世界西方民主國家堅定的聲音可以阻止北京的惡行。
熱切期待澳洲政府對此事採取行動。
民主中國陣線主席 秦晉

Dear Hon. Scott Morrison MP, Prime Minister of Australia,
Re: Pastor Wang Yi and Early Rain Covenant Church in Sichuan China
I am writing on behalf of the Federation for a Democratic China (FDC) to refer to the above-mentioned case, a recent surge of police action against unsanctioned Christian activity in China.
The FDC would like to bring this matter into your attention.
China's pre-Christmas Church crackdown alarmed the world, according to reliable sources and reports, Chinese police are raiding churches and arresting pastors that don't tow the Communist Party line as Christmas approaches, detaining nearly 100 in a wave of pre-Christmas crackdowns, Pastor Wang Yi and his wife are among them.
Mr. Wang Yi (born June 1973) is the pastor of the Early Rain Covenant Church, a Chinese house church in Chengdu. He is also a productive writer, editor, and social activist, and was a legal scholar at Chengdu University before he resigned to take up the pastorate.
Wang Yi visited Australia in early 2006 as the Secretary General for the Independent Chinese PEN, assisting then President of PEN, Dr. Liu Xiaobo, 2010 Nobel Peace Prize laureate. He also in the same year 2006 received warm reception of the US President George W. Bush in White House.
The FDC are filled with anger and disgust at the persecution of unsanctioned churches and arrest of pastors by the Xi Jinping Beijing Government. The FDC would like to implore your government to make representation on behalf of Pastor Wang Yi and others detained, condemning Xi Jinping and his government for their inhuman activities and demanding their immediate release. A firm voice from Australia and all West democracies around the world could serve to a halt of what Beijing is doing.
Your action on this matter is eagerly expected.
King regards,
Chin Jin
Chairman of the Federation for a Democratic China
