Press Release
Citizens Against Communist Chinese Propaganda
Contact: Jack Churchward
To mark the sixth anniversary of the Chinese government owned and operated
theme park known as Florida Splendid China, Citizens Against Communist
Chinese Propaganda (CACCP) will be holding a protest demonstration
beginning at noon on Saturday, December 18, 1999.
For almost six years, groups and individuals concerned with the inclusion
of inappropriate exhibits at the Florida Splendid China theme park in
Kissimmee have written to the park's management to ask for discussions
about the offending exhibits. All of their correspondence has gone
unanswered and as a result, CACCP was formed and has maintained pressure on
the theme park through bimonthly demonstrations and a web-site to counter
the propaganda http://www.caccp.org/). Other activities have included the
highly successful "Exposing Chinese Government Influence in America"
conference held in May 1999 and letters to Florida School Board
Superintendents about the propaganda.

Citizens Against Communist Chinese Propaganda
Citizens Against Communist Chinese Propaganda is a group of dedicated volunteers who are against the inclusion of 'minority' and religious exhibits at the Chinese Communist Party owned and operated Florida Splendid China theme park in Kissimmee, Florida. Specifically, we are protesting the inclusion of the Potala Palace that was built by the Tibetan people and served as the home of successive Dalai Lamas since 1645, the Id Gah Mosque and Tomb of Abakh Hoja which serve as cultural icons of the people of Eastern Turkestan and the Mausoleum of Genghis Khan and the Mongolian Yurt exhibit which attempt to add a Chinese name to the Southern Mongolian people.
