From the Sydney Morning Herald:
In a bland five-storey building on Beijing’s Baiguang Road, Chinese Government officials are peering closely at photographs of middle-aged Westerners, their eyes darting constantly across to another set of pictures, close-ups of tiny, spiky-haired Chinese babies.
The Westerners are some of the 15,000 or so foreign couples and single would-be parents who each year travel to China to start or extend their family by adoption. The babies are the current crop available for adoption from one of hundreds of government orphanages around the country.
