Bay Area Falun Gong Practitioners Celebrate World Falun Dafa Day
SAN FRANCISCO A truck rolls by, distinguishing itself from the rest of the traffic in San Francisco because of its LED electronic billboards. The colorful screens, which are mounted on three sides of the vehicle, continuously play videos of people doing slow-moving exercises. At the front, a flower-bordered sign reads: “Falun Dafa is Good.”
Dan Ngo, a local Falun Gong practitioner who owns the truck, put a lot of effort into getting the vehicle ready in time for the parade to celebrate World Falun Dafa Day, which falls on May 13 each year.

San Francisco Ferris Wheel Will Stay for 4 More Years
SANTA CLARA, Calif. San Francisco’s Historic Preservation Committee has decided to keep the “SkyStar Wheel” in the music concourse in Golden Gate Park for four more years.
The original agreement for the 150-foot-tall Ferris wheel was one year, as part of the park’s 150th anniversary.
Those in favor of the wheel staying have said that it brings a quality of life to the city’s residents, more people to the city to promote local businesses, and money for the park.
While the ride had been closed due to a surge in COVID-19 cases, operations resumed on March 4.
