[para 2.2] Laogai 劳改 is not re-education through labour. That is (or was) laojiao 劳教, a lesser punishment not requiring a court sentence and limited to 3 years. Laogai is reform through labour, with its echos of Arbeit macht frei.
thank you very much for pointing out this mistake! I've amended accordingly.
