SOUTH China's Guangdong Province is planning to end the re-education through labor system within the year, according to the provincial judicial department yesterday.
Guangdong was preparing to be the leading and exploratory region to stop the laojiao system, said Yan Zhichan, director of the province's Department of Justice.
Public criticism of the re-education through the labor system has been growing.
In August, Tang Hui, a woman in central China's Hunan Province, was sentenced to 18 months in a labor camp after protesting and demanding tougher penalties for the seven men convicted of abducting, raping and prostituting her 11-year-old daughter.
Tang was released within a week following complaints from people across the country.
The national political and legal work conference in early January announced changes to the system, which will be pushed forward this year.
