(Clearwisdom.net) On March 2002, Xinjiang Tebian Electric Corporation (TBEA) made a formal agreement with the Xinjiang Changji Forced Labor Camp to set up a production unit at the Changji Labor Camp. They agreed to have Falun Gong practitioners and other detainees work for no compensation. Their only goal was to make a big profit for TBEA. The products are machine parts for the manufacture of utensils and other semi-finished products.

Xinjiang Changji Labor Camp only focuses on profits. Certain members of the prison staff are so depraved and immoral they were deemed unqualified to work for other judicial systems. Changji Labor Camp has set economic goals for its different sections. Economic benefits are the driving force for the promotion and bonus of the prison's employees.

Each section has to turn over its earnings to retain its position in the Labor Camp. At the same time, all employees want to assure that their economic desires are met. Therefore, to assure that they maintain a high level of earnings, they cruelly persecute the detained Falun Gong practitioners and other detainees. They force the detainees to work continuously. If they resist, they are insulted and beaten.

The supervision method is very simple but harsh. The policemen's minds are driven by greed, thus their depraved thoughts allow them to enslave and torture the detainees. They also have no qualms about extending the time in the labor camp of those they have enslaved.

Another torture method is to keep the detainees hungry. Year-in and year-out, the detainees are fed only soup with some Chinese cabbage. (Note: This kind of food is low in calories and it is not nutritious. It is not enough to keep a person fully fed, but only enough to keep the person from dying.) They only are given a little bit of meat on some major holidays.

During an inspection or visit, the Labor Camp will pretend to serve chicken and beef to fool the visitors. After the inspectors or visitors leave, the food will be taken away. The Labor Camp would also post menus, which show meals with meat as a smokescreen.

The TBEA workshop in No. 6 Brigade is divided into four small groups: cutting board machine group, assembly group, insulation finishing group, and wooden fixtures group.

Many steadfast Falun Gong practitioners are forced to work in the TBEA workshop. They suffer a lot. Among them are Ge Lijun, Nu Erlan, Wang Xiu, Wang Hui, and Wang Hongjun, and others.

This illegal TBEA workplace is poorly set up and thus the detainees are continuously exposed to dust and other pollutants. They produce the parts for the final products, but do not often have the tools or know-how to do it well. Thus the products would not pass quality control in a normal workplace, especially since the raw materials used are scraps and waste materials from TBEA. It is hard to imagine what kind of trouble products assembled under such conditions will bring the buyer. However, TBEA does not care about the suffering of the detainees, the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners, and the inferior quality of the products, they only wish to continue to increase production to receive more and larger orders and make big profits.

Besides Falun Gong practitioners, the staff members also suffer from the enslavement. Most of them are of low education and have no real technical skills. The Labor Camp does not perceive this as a major problem. In this so-called "Ministry Level Civilized Labor Camp," Commissar Zhu Xuefei (former commissar), Director Li Jianjiang (present commissar) and other ordinary policeman "diligently" insult and beat the detainees. A person without elementary education in the labor camp can be trained as a "skilled worker" within a very short time. As the detainees are not skilled with the proper use of the tools, suffer from long-term sleep deprivation and malnutrition, endure mental and physical torture from the policemen and the task leader, many of the detainees injure their fingers and feet. Yet, although they continue to suffer in these appalling conditions, they have no recourse and cannot stop working or they will be physically punished for "escaping from work." The detainees' bodies are in horrible condition. One can see open wounds, scratches and signs of beatings all over their entire bodies.

TBEA announced that it publicly traded and was a well-recognized national level corporation in a good competitive situation. Besides Jiang's regime, including numerous Chinese government agencies, TBEA received favorite recommendations from foreign entities, such as the UK Accreditation Service (UKAS), U.S. Quality and Environmental Professional Safety, the International High Pressure industries, as well as companies from Italy. TBEA products are sold in Canada, Australia, Malaysia, India, Singapore, and twenty more countries and regions throughout the world. Yet no one seems to realize that components in TBEA's products are produced through slave labor in the labor camps.

TBEA is secretly circumventing international trading laws as it is hiding from the international community the fact that components in its products are produced through slave labor. They suppress the fact that they are willing participants in the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners at Changji Labor Camp in Xinjiang. They naturally do not disclose information that clearly shows that they are in violation of human rights and other international trade laws.

We appeal to the international community and all international investigative entities to scrutinize and verify the above facts. This company is violating international laws and covenants. Please, help us stop this exploitation and this violation of human labor laws. Please stop this violation of international laws, revoke international commendations of this company and put an end to this manipulation of international trust. This company does not deserve to be recognized and its products should not be sold in the international market. We appeal to all businesses worldwide to no longer purchase products manufactured by TBEA.

TBEA and China's inhuman labor camps should be condemned for intimidating and forcing detainees to work for huge profits. We condemn TBEA's board chairman, Zhang Xin, who is the congressional representative of Changji. He does not care about people's sufferings. Instead, he is blinded by financial gain and power, conceals his evil deeds, and colludes with Jiang's cohorts to brutally persecute Falun Gong practitioners.
