Now, that I am in front of you I have no answer why all that happened. We have not received a verbal answer form the theatre administration, we have not received a verbal or a written answer from the Ministry of Culture. We even organized protests in front of the Government to allow someone to get out and give us an explanation about what is going on.<\/p>\n<p>I make an appeal to them even now, to say that the company is still in the country; they leave the day after tomorrow- so we are ready even today to set up the scene and tomorrow to have the show, at least one, because those who suffered the most in this case, are the citizens of Republic of Moldova, those who wanted to see the show. We convinced ourselves once more that we have so many rights verbally but not in reality. It was a great loss for the people that the show didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t take place.<\/p>\n<p>The Theatre was so supportive at the beginning, they guaranteed everything was all right and there would not be any problem. When I talked to the Ministry of Culture- I personally talked to him on Friday- he put it plainly that the Chinese ambassador had made him a visit insisting that these shows to be canceled and to not take place in Moldova. As I understood from the Theatre administration, they had also been visited by the Chinese ambassador, not only once, with the same request. But they kept on promising they would not fall prey the pressure from the embassy and they would respect a legally signed contract stipulated by the law of Republic of Moldova, to find ourselves now in the situation that they don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t want to answer my phonecalls. All the authorities are silent now as if nothing has happened, as if there have not been100 American citizens in front of the Theatre. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s abnormal to behave like this with some foreign people who had been invited here and also have their own rights. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s such a disgrace by those who were elected by us and we entrusted our fate in their hands.<\/p>\n<p>We went in front of the presidency and the president told us he has nothing with breaking the show. So, I appeal to them once more: we can still stage the show in the Republic of Moldova. The troupe is still here. They did not come only to us, they are in an international tour in Europe.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h2>Man-yan Ng:<\/h2>\n<p>&#8220;And we were actually very encouraged to have the opportunity to have Shen Yun to come to Moldova. And unfortunatelly you have experienced that- there was no show in Moldova. I understand from the theatre management and also from the Ministry of Culture we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve never received any expalnation why they never opened the door to the theatre. This is a sabotage from the Chinese communist regime through their different embassies in Europe. The Chinese regime doesn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t even allow Moldovan people to have the freedoom to choose whatever show they want to see.<\/p>\n<p>Some people may not see such an event of stopping a show as a big thing, but this is totally ignoring the basic human rights and basic human dignity of people. And in its extention this can mean a lot of trouble for the people in Moldova, even to allow such things to continue to happen.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.infotag.md\/reportaje\/583501\/\" target=\"_blank\">INFOTAG News Agency report: <\/a><\/p>\n<h3>FALUN DAFA CERE EXPLICA\u00c5\u00a2II REFERITOR LA AC\u00c5\u00a2IUNILE ILEGALE \u00c3\u017dNTREPRINSE FA\u00c5\u00a2\u00c4\u201a DE TRUPA SHEN YUN PERFORMING ARTS<\/h3>\n<p>Asocia\u00c5\u00a3ia ob\u00c5\u0178teasc\u00c4\u0192 Falun Dafa cere explica\u00c5\u00a3ii de la Guvernul Moldovei referitor la ac\u00c5\u00a3iunile ilegale \u00c3\u00aentreprinse fa\u00c5\u00a3\u00c4\u0192 de trupa de actori Shen Yun Performing Arts din New York.<\/p>\n<p>Directorul asocia\u00c5\u00a3iei, Tatiana Chiriac, a men\u00c5\u00a3ionat joi, \u00c3\u00aen cadrul unei conferin\u00c5\u00a3e de pres\u00c4\u0192 la agen\u00c5\u00a3ia INFOTAG, c\u00c4\u0192 actorii au sosit la Chi\u00c5\u0178in\u00c4\u0192u pentru a prezenta \u00c3\u00aen zilele de 25 \u00c5\u0178i 26 mai pe scena Teatrului Na\u00c5\u00a3ional de Oper\u00c4\u0192 \u00c5\u0178i Balet un spectacol de dans clasic chinez.<\/p>\n<p>Potrivit ei, Falun Dafa a \u00c3\u00aencheiat cu teatrul un contract privind arenda scenei pentru zilele de 25 \u00c5\u0178i 26 mai.<\/p>\n<p>\u00e2\u20ac\u017eAsocia\u00c5\u00a3ia a respectat condi\u00c5\u00a3iile contractului, \u00c3\u00aenc\u00c4\u0192 \u00c3\u00aen ziua c\u00c3\u00aend urma s\u00c4\u0192 aib\u00c4\u0192 loc spectacolul conducerea teatrului nu a permis actorilor s\u00c4\u0192-\u00c5\u0178i aduc\u00c4\u0192 echipamentul \u00c5\u0178i s\u00c4\u0192 \u00c3\u00aenceap\u00c4\u0192 repeti\u00c5\u00a3iile, iar ulterior a anulat spectacolul f\u00c4\u0192r\u00c4\u0192 a aduce careva explica\u00c5\u00a3ii.
