Every year, thousands of children in China go missing. Many of them are abducted by human traffickers. About 30 parents from around China gathered in Beijing last week. They unfurled this massive banner with pictures and details of their missing children. This created a 300ft long Missing Children Wall.Zhao Weichao, a boy from Inner Mongolia, went missing in 2007. Wang Ming, a girl from Shanxi Province, went missing in 1997. The faces of these children, along with many others are displayed. The Father of Lin Chengmian, an 8-year old child who was kidnapped in 2008 in Fujian Province, explains the parents' wishes."We want to see whether we can strike harder at these kidnappers, and help find our children. This is my biggest wish, finding our children is our biggest wish."Many of the children have been missing for several years. The Chinese regime's one-child policy and the lucrative overseas adoption market have created a demand for children. While there are no official statistics, between thousands to tens of thousands of kidnaps are estimated every year.A video report can be seen on Daily MotionYou can also find further information about child tracking at childtracking.org
