I’d still wonder about Chinese who had the audacity, not just to tuck a note into a set of cheap trinkets, but who would say just where they came from, which breathless US media would flash all over the place. You just don’t DO that in China. And someone apparently taught the writer pretty good English. This is not Engrish. It might not be what it appears to be, even though labor conditions aren’t as nice in China as in most of the West.

Either this is an elaborate hoax (I doubt it) or an educated person with a decent command of the English language (educated in the West at some point probably) is imprisoned (for political/religious reasons) in the great Chinese Gulag Archipelago of factories through out the workers paradise of Communist China. Remember folks, it is still a Communist led country where dissent is not tolerated, much less anything else. The fact that they’re practicing consumerism (the heart of communism, really, given a spiritual purpose in life is non-existent except for those who attempt to practice Falungong) makes sense eventually. Less rioting, more control and well, happy workers, just what every dictator appreciates and will pay any price to achieve. Pray for them and their eventual freedom. Merry Christmas.

He has a better command of the English language than most here. He’s either not living up to his full potential or this is a sick joke.

Did a bit of checking on the locations mentioned in the letter. Shenyang is up by North Korea.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Masanjia_Labor_Camp - Yep, the labor camp even has a Wiki insertion, while it is outdated.

http://www.slaverymap.org/ Slavery Map has not been updated with this information yet.

http://www.free2work.org/ Free2Work does not have a listing for seasonal gifts such as Halloween decorations. This site is a collaboration between Not For Sale, a human freedom activist group, and the IRLF, an international labor union.
