An NGO is planning to open a school in Beijing specifically for Chinese children adopted by foreign families to provide training and help them to find better jobs in China.
The Chinese mainland officially opened its doors to international adoption in 1991. Since then, 90,000 families from 17 countries and regions, including 70,000 from the United States, have adopted 120,000 children.
Although most get a good education and affection from their adoptive parents, they always wonder why their biological parents abandoned them, said Edwin Huang, organizer of Angels Alliance Foundation, an NGO based in Hong Kong.
