Roundtable: Forced Labor in China
On June 22, 2005 the Congressional-Executive Commission on China held another in its series of staff-led Issues Roundtables, entitled Forced Labor in China. The panelists Harry Wu, founder of the Laogai Research Foundation; Jeff Fiedler, President, Food and Allied Services Trades Department, AFL-CIO, and co-founder of the Laogai Research Foundation; and Gregory Xu, Falun Gong researcher, spoke about China's continued use of forced labor and Chinese authorities' lack of cooperation in implementing the 1992 US-China Memorandum of Understanding Prohibiting Trade in Prison Labor Products to ensure that goods made by forced labor do not enter the U.S. market.
