  • Chinese man uses Google maps to locate family 23 years after being kidnapped
    A Chinese man has used Google maps to locate his family, 23 years after he was abducted. Luo Gang, who was kidnapped when he was just five years old, used the online tool to locate two bridges - the only landmarks he remembered from his hometown.

    Luo, 28, was snatched in a small town in Sichuan province while on his way to kindergarten. He was then taken hundreds of miles east, to Fujian province, where he was adopted by a family in the city of Sanming.

    But Luo says he never gave up hope that he would one day be reunited with his biological parents. "Every day before I went to bed, I forced myself to relive the life spent in my old home," he told Fujian's Strait News.
  • Wenjiang's Empty Houses
    According to a 2012 report by the Chengdu Statistics Bureau, among the six districts and counties around Chengdu, Wenjiang's urbanization rate was the highest at 54.6 percent.

    But this kind of urbanization isn't necessarily good news for Wenjiang's economic development. The amount of fiscal revenue in the city reliant on real estate once surpassed 80 percent, and there's little industrial progress to speak of.

    Wenjiang is a poster child for how urbanization alone doesn't necessarily bring sustainable economic development. Many scholars now realize urbanization shouldn't be a government-led way to promote economic development, but rather, it should come naturally as a result of economic development.
