A Chinese official says the country has been successful in efforts to crack down on the spiritual movement Falun Gong, 10 years after it was banned.
Li Anping, from the China Anti-Cult Association, told a national newspaper that people now realised the true nature of the movement.
But Falun Gong still exists, and has organised protest events outside China to mark the anniversary.
Falun Gong was banned in China in 1999 for carrying out "illegal activities".
'Violent campaign'
The Chinese government is not keen to mark this anniversary and there has been little mention of Falun Gong in the media over the past few days.
But Mr Li told China's Global Times: "As people have realised the true essence of the cult, it's [now] impossible for them to organise a massive activity."
His association is a non-governmental body made up of volunteers, although it receives government backing.
But the Falun Gong information centre, based in New York, puts forward a different picture.
It says the Chinese government has carried out a violent campaign against practitioners over the last 10 years.
