Notification of 610 Office, XX County, the Chinese Communist Party, on How To Conduct Prevention and Control during the "May 1" Period

  Various Party Committees at the Township Level and Party Committees at the County State Institutional Level,

  According to briefing from the Party's Central 610 Office, recently Falun Gong activities have been quite active inside the country as a consequence of instigation from Falun Gong organization outside the country. Local incidents such as large-character writing, spraying, hanging and posting of counter-reactionary slogans have occurred every now and then; extensive distribution of Falun Gong's counter-propaganda materials has happened on multiple occasions; the Falun Gong organization outside the country has continued to use technical means to augment its propaganda and penetration, to upgrade its capability of attacking satellites, and to conduct television break-in of its own programs; thus our prevention work running into tough situations. "May 1" festival is coming soon. To ensure a solid prevention and control and to ensure social and political stability across the county, the following matters are therefore included in this notification:

  1.  Strengthen prevention and control over "important figures". Before the "May 1" festival, face-to-face talks must be given to "important figures" and "not-trust-worthy figures" individually and respectively to learn about their thoughts and tendency of actions. Implement "3-on-1" prevention and control measures, strictly restrict them from going out to initiate and create incidents. Proper arrangements must be made of their work and production to timely solve their worries and difficulties and to stabilize their thoughts and mood. Prevention and control should adopt appropriate methods so that internally controls are tight and externally all appear slack, thus preventing negative effects. Regular visits must be made to those who truly have been converted but investigation should be made indirectly so that they may feel they live in a relaxed environment. This is to consolidate the education and conversion results.

  2.  Strengthen society-wide prevention and control. The Public Security institutions must dispatch policing forces to upgrade patrol in the society. Strengthen security in the key areas and important sites to maintain high-pressure and create deterrence. At the same time strengthen information work to obtain alerting and signaling information. Closely watch for relevant social tendencies, pay attention to the mood of those on the internet, investigate and filter factors potentially to cause social instability, strictly restrict Falun Gong elements (members) from getting into large group events and hot social topics so that any risk factors will be wiped off at their earliest stage. Any single illegal activity of Falun Gong elements must be timely handled and dealt with as soon as discovered to strictly strike it according to laws. Each township and each relevant institution must mobilize its security-oriented households, country patrol team, community hygienic members, taxi drivers, postmen, security control men to participate in the patrol prevention and control work. Conduct massive prevention and massive control so as not to give Falun Gong elements a single chance.

  3.  Strengthen technical prevention on the broadcast and television, and telecommunications networks. The broadcast and television institutions must pay great attention to prevention of Falun Gong from broadcast and television break-ins. From this very moment, regular check-ups must be performed on each segment of security operation. Strengthen patrol over trunk and branch cable lines, monitor programs from beginning to end. As soon as an illegal signal is discovered a zero second cut-off must be resolutely implemented to ensure safe broadcasting of radio and television signals. The Public Security and telecommunications administrations must reinforce efforts to prevent harassment phone calls and massive e-mailings and cellular messaging so that a timely blockage is obtained against harmful messages.

  4.  Strengthen leadership and implement commitment. Various relevant townships and units must fully understand the seriousness of the struggle against Falun Gong and must get rid of slackness in mind to substantially fulfill their political responsibilities, to strengthen leadership in prevention and control, and to earnestly urge all measures to be implemented. Dispatch the forces and mobilize people as soon as possible. Investigations will be resolutely conducted against those who have caused problems because of slackness in the mind, no implementation of the measures, and sloppy work.

  5.  Strengthen the festival watch-guard duties to ensure smooth flow of information. During the "May 1" period, all townships, institutions and units must maintain a 24 hour security watch to keep information flow smooth. Every after[noon] before 5 pm, a report must filed to the county 610 Office of the day's situations. Incidents must be reported and no incidents must be reported as a safety message, and important situations must be reported right away to resolutely stop the phenomenon of missed information, late reported information, and purposeful hiding of information.
