    And China it’s not a nice place to become “unreachable”

  2. >One of these people is Kuo Yu-hsuan (郭宇軒), a 22-year-old Taiwanese man from Kaohsiung who went missing while visiting China in August. China’s Taiwan Affairs Office last month said in a news statement that he was under investigation for his alleged involvement in a fraud case.

    I’m guess some missing are for a reason.

    > Taiwanese should be wary if someone such as a friend, acquaintance or stranger touts job opportunities in China that are "Highly profitable," Luo said, adding that those who are tricked into visiting China would likely be forced to do something illegal.

    A Taiwanese going to travel in China is like an American going to Russia. Chances are you’re going to jail or get disappeared. Never understood those people who travel to openly hostile tyrannical hellholes who literally want to destroy your country.

    “Most of the reachable people in the more than 30 other incidents were allegedly involved in fraud, while some had disappeared for personal reasons, Luo said.”

    Need a detailed breakdown, but it sounds to me like some people involved in fraud decided to go to China since there isn’t an extradition treaty with Taiwan, and Taiwanese are already considered Chinese nationals so can live there indefinitely. These people would likely get jailed if they return to Taiwan.
