The reeducation-through-labor management office also invited party and government leaders, celebrities and some "prodigals" who have corrected their bad habits and made achievements to make a report to persuade or "state their views", so that reeducation-through-labor personnel can understand the expectations and requirements of the party, the government and the public and enhance their confidence in correcting their mistakes. Those who have been released from reeducation through labor will return to their original residence and settle down, and employment and further education will not be discriminated against.
