Children-trafficking has not be solved in China.

I found this tragic news on BBC

Summary
On September 28th, 92 abducted children were rescued by Chinese police, and at the same time, 301 members of huge trafficking group were arrested for breaching the law. They and other group members have kidnapped so many children to sell them in other region. These issue have become a serious problem in China related to the country's one-child policy.

Reflection
I was really shocked to hear this news because human trafficking does not exsist in Japan. I was also surprised at the number the people who was kidnapped. It said more than 24,000 women and children had been sold for adoption or slave. However China has great population, this number is huge. What a tragic problem! A remarkable point is that these problems have been occuring under the influence of the country's one-child policy and lax adoption laws. It allows to accelerate increasing the problems. Because, the people will be panished when they have children against the law, but they want child as a labor, so they tend to buy children under the market. I thought Chinese people seems to object the one-child policy. This issue looks hard to be solved, but I hope the country will be deal with this problem quickly.

Questions
*What do you think of one-child policy in China?
*How the China should take a measure against the traffickng network?
