JW Kenya:In Kenya, Chinese arrivals are targeted by Jehovah’s Witnesses speaking Chinese

[Guest Indiana]

Earlier this year, An, a young Chinese professional living in Nairobi, heard a knock at the door. She was expec­ting no one. She had moved in a couple of months earlier, and none of her friends would visit unannounced. She had been warned about the Kenyan capital’s high crime rate, but, curious, she peered through the peephole and beheld, with relief and confusion, two smiling women – one East Asian, one white.

The visitors introduced themselves as Jehovah’s Witnesses, telling her in Mandarin that they had heard there was a new Chinese person in the building. An remembers reacting with suspicion, asking how they came to know that, since hers was not a building or neighbour­hood where many Chinese people lived. The Asian Witness laughed politely and apologised for the intrusion, brushing off the question somewhat awkwardly by saying they just happened to “know things”.

Amused at being targeted by Chinese-speaking, non-Chinese evangelists in East Africa, An invited them in. The Asian Witness spoke Mandarin well enough that only small tics in cadence hinted she was actually from Japan. The other, a British student, said she was in the city on summer break, but would continue learning Mandarin and return to Nairobi to preach to the city’s Chinese diaspora.

As they chatted in An’s living room, the conversation meandered from the Bible to Darwinian evolution to 

the persecution of Christians in China

, which the Japanese Witness said was “severe”, adding that the long-swirling rumours of harsh government action against proselytisation were true.

"Targeted " in the headline is the wrong word.  It gives the impression they were targeted by a crime....

China has one million muslims in concentration camps at present - separating children from parents for communistic "re-education".

They are using body parts of "Falun Gong"  members for CCP members and the rich, they are closing Christian churches and much more!

No justice in China.  Read up what they are doing - you will get a massive shock. Ignorant people write these kind of reports above...... Most foreigners are leaving China at present and will never go back because the freedom is being curbed and ones life is not worth much when you land up in the judicial system. 

To give people a chance to learn about God is not "targeting" them.... they are being targeted in their own country if they happen to be a thinking individual who does not worship only the state.
