This book was released on 2012-08-04 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many human rights groups allege that the use of forced labor is a common and established practice in China. They assert that products of this forced labor are exported to other countries and that a substantial portion is sent to the United States. The Commission heard testimony that prisoners in China are incarcerated for their political views or because of their religious beliefs. Human rights groups have reported that conditions in the forced labor facilities are brutal, that medical care is poor and that workplace conditions are generally exhausting and dangerous. According to the Laogai Research Foundation, China's prison systems (Laogai) are an integral part of the national economy. That Foundation claims to have documented nearly 100-forced labor camps, producing $800 million in sales, and contends that the number of such camps probably numbers well over 1,000. It further contends that goods from Laogai are being imported into the U.S. The Chinese government maintains that products made by forced labor are not exported from China to the United States.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: GAO reviewed issues regarding the memorandum of understanding between the U.S. and China that prohibits the import of goods made with Chinese prison labor, focusing on the: (1) Customs Service's assessment of China's compliance; and (2) government's ability to obtain information sufficient to enforce the agreement. GAO found that: (1) while China had not sufficiently demonstrated a willingness to meet its responsibilities under the agreement, Customs reported more recent signs of cooperation; (2) China recently signed an implementation agreement that could enhance mutual compliance and increase Customs' ability to visit prisons suspected of producing goods for export; (3) recordkeeping practices in China's prison system may inhibit its ability to comply with the agreement; (4) recently Customs has succeeded in obtaining information sufficient to make administrative determinations regarding potential prison-labor goods; (5) the Department of Justice was concerned that it might not get sufficient information to cost-effectively defend Customs' decisions; (6) Justice attorneys must produce information before the U.S. Court of International Trade (CIT) to defend Customs determinations to exclude apparent prison-labor imports; (7) in December 1994, a CIT decision that affirmed a Customs finding was upheld for the first time; and (8) Justice officials are concerned that its ability to sustain Customs' findings may be inhibited because much of the information necessary to uphold Customs' findings is no longer published in China.
