Starting in 1999, the number of transplant centers in China increased by 300% in just 8 years, even though China has no effective national organ donation system. 1999 was the year the Chinese regime began persecuting adherents of the Falun Gong spiritual practice, sending hundreds of thousands to labor camps. Many of them were never seen again.

Increasingly, doctors, congressmen, international politicians, human rights lawyers, journalists, and people around the world are raising awareness about forced organ harvesting.
The U.S. federal government and 33 U.S. states continue to use capital punishment for major crimes like murder, but almost a third of the executions occur in just one state – Texas.

Burma started to release 17,000 prisoners on Tuesday, May 17th 2011. Some of the prisoners that would be released are political captives. Burma has more than 2,000 political detainees in jail; many say that common criminals are expected to be released in huge amounts of numbers than political prisoners.
