Dozens of protesters gathered outside an informal Chinese police station in Chinatown on Saturday to demand the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) stop spying on the Chinese community in New York City.
More than 60 protestors rallied outside ChangLe Association Inc. on 107 East Broadway, where a Chinese “service station” operates above a noodle shop, the New York Post reported.
According to security experts, the station conducts surveillance against Chinese dissidents in the city.
Toni Cai, a pro-democracy activist who was imprisoned by the CCP in China for promoting free speech, attended the rally.

It’s a very serious problem in the Chinese community. The CCP has coerced the Chinese community severely and has a large influence on them here in the state, through American and Asian-American politicians. I am very worried, but I want to support the community leaders who are honest and openly against what the CCP is doing.
Jing Zhang, the founder and executive director of Women’s Rights in China, was also among the demonstrators on Saturday.
“People need to support each other,” Zhang said. “We all came here to be free.”

Other protesters have called on the government to implement a high pressure policy on CCP agents.
“CCP agents are everywhere,” protester Ziyun Huang said.
When all the human rights groups have protests and demonstrations, the CCP will come and harass people. The CCP affects the average Chinese American tremendously. The party is always in the back of their mind. Everything they do is psychological. CCP to the Chinese is like the weather — they are always in the background.
