APPENDIX

Here are some concerning informal conversation between members that the undercover police secretly recorded before and after the conference. These are mostly mumbles to oneself or whispered between two people:
-"Make it quick so we can get back to work"
-"God damn it that they picked me, I had to sit on a bus for 9 hours just to get to the capital."
-"Wow, 23 people not attend, this must be a record"
"Or maybe they are just high level cadre who get picked and do not bother to attend, and i am sure, nothing will happen to them"
"Or that just what those secret 'dogs' do to test us"
-"Everyone just pick the same 'positive' in all vote and make it quick"
-"Yeah, we don't get pay for this, and our boss will cut our saleries today"
-"No matter what we do nothing will change"
-"Who is that Joseph guy, he surely gonna die"
"Don't think so, remember undercover police are everywhere, maybe that just a test, maybe our conversation are being recored right now, just hope not"
-"30 minute, that great, though I think we can make it faster"
-"The Speaker speak to slow, maybe I should have become the Chair of the meeting, I will speak 10 times faster than him"
