Bride trafficking, a problem on China’s belt and road | South China Morning Post

in DLIKE5 years ago

Shared From Dlike

For ages men have been exploiting young women taking advantage of the economic disparities between countries and the desire of the young girls and women from poorer countries to seek out a better life elsewhere. 

The ease of communication facilitated by the advent of internet, telecommunication and the investments in infrastructure, demographic gender imbalance in China and the perennial greed of men are now serving as driving forces for bride trafficking from poorer countries in the Asian region to China. 

Young girls and women who fall for such illusory attractions end up worse than they were before.
