This is the second amnesty this year, once again affirming the humane and lenient policy of our Party and State, aiming to create conditions for repentant prisoners to have the opportunity to soon reintegrate into the community to rebuild their lives. This is also a motivation to help prisoners serving prison sentences to be more active in studying, training and working, striving to soon return to their families and become useful people to society.
