M illions of people have died in the Chinese concentration camps
known as laogai. Even the few books that have described what
goes on in these camps are sufficient to reveal the ruthlessness of
the communist regime.

there were more than 1,000 laogai camps in China as a whole, with 8-10
million inmates. 41
The income from what the prisoners produce forms an important

part of the Chinese budget. One study in 1999 revealed that 99 laogai
42
camps recorded annual sales figures of 842.7 million dollars. In other
words, a great many of those people all over the world who use goods
made in China are actually using products made by forced labor in Red

Chinese state camps. For example, China is one of the world's major tea
producers and one-third of the tea it exports comes from laogai camps.
The worker slaves in those camps produce 120 different varieties of tea,
and are punished if their products are not up to a sufficiently high stan-
dard. 43
