It's so disgusting to see this. This man is lieing, what he said is to get an excuse to go abroad illegally. It's a shame .

This happens ALL the time. Lots of Chinese try to swim to Taiwan. Some of them join tour groups, go to Taiwan, and then mysteriously disappear. What are you going to do huh? I guess freedom tastes pretty sweet... I guess it's worth the risk.
