Prison Labor

All convicted prisoners in Vietnam, as well as detainees in re-education camps, are required to work eight hours a day without pay, primarily doing agricultural and manufacturing work. Prison jobs include construction, carpentry and furniture production, sewing, making handicrafts, weaving, making bricks, farming, rubber tapping, tending cashew plantations, cashew processing, and logging.
