The probe comes after media reports said some husbands of the missing women received phone calls telling them to pay ransoms, or otherwise, the women would be sold again. About 100 purchased Vietnamese wives are missing from Hunan's mountainous regions. Hu Qiulai and Hu Jianhe are from the same remote mountainous village in Shuangfeng County of Hunan; they lost their wives on the same day. Then two months later, they received phone calls from their wives. "She sobbed and told me that she was kidnapped and sold to another remote village and needed 20,000 yuan ($3,130) to ransom her back," said Hu Jianhe, who bought the woman for 36,388 yuan in 2008. The two men reported the case to local police after some hesitation, as the women, who were bought on the Sino-Vietnam border, were not their legal wives. Hu Gengqing, Hu Jianhe's father, acknowledged that women trafficking were rampant in his county. "They were all bought from Yunnan, which borders Vietnam, and the total number (in the county) could be in dozens," he said. There are more males than females in Chinese rural areas, as boys are preferred, so some men in poor regions resort to buying their wives as they cannot find women to marry them. Police officers at the public security bureau in Shuangfeng County said the bureau has set up a special team to investigate the reported women trafficking and marriage fraud. The bureau is seeking to ascertain the exact number of missing wives, as many partners may be unwilling to report the cases for fear of being accused of trafficking, they said. Since September last year, the bureau has only received two cases in which four wives were found to be victims of trafficking, they added. Comments: This is very unfortunate. But why do people buy wives? Is it a commodity or piece of furniture? These fools who buy wives dont understand that these wives become wives just for money and then just run away to make more money. They are teamed together with the pimps who sell them. Once they come to china they find it more lucrative to sell themselves again or some are threatened by the pimps to come back so that they can sell them again. If they went missing the same day means these men were cheated. In this case if the husband had given the ransom money she would again run away. This is nothing but a money making business and prostitution in the form of marriage. The ratio of men is more this is also another problem why men want to buy wives. Hopefully the government will do something about this. kio China reaps what is sows. The one child policy is an inhumane policy aimed at mass infacide of children. China has sacrificed its future and now is doomed. There are 200 million more men than woman in China because of the "son preference", so many chinese men will never get a wife - this because of the son preference.

“"Everything predicted by the enemies of banks, in the beginning, is now coming to pass. We are to be ruined now by the deluge of bank paper. It is cruel that such revolutions in private fortunes should be at the mercy of avaricious adventurers, who, instead of employing their capital, if any they have, in manufactures, commerce, and other useful pursuits, make it an instrument to burden all the interchanges of property with their swindling profits, profits which are the price of no useful industry of theirs." --Thomas Jefferson to Thomas Cooper, 1814
