(Add details) Taipei, June 18 (CNA) The National Immigration Agency (NIA) announced Thursday that it has smashed a large-scale human trafficking ring involving suspects from Taiwan, Hong Kong, China and the United States.

The cross-border human smuggling gang is the largest ever uncovered in Taiwan in collaboration with the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, a spokesman for the NIA's Border Affairs Corps told a news conference.

Seventy-four Taiwanese suspects of the ring were turned over to the Taoyuan Prosecutors Office for further investigation, the spokesman said.

According to the initial investigation, a Chinese man surnamed Wang was the mastermind of the ring, which helped Chinese women obtain passports of the Republic of China altered with their photos.

The fake passports were then used to apply for valid U.S. visas so that the women could enter the United States using the forged passports.

A Taiwanese accomplice surnamed Yang was allegedly responsible for swindling local young girls' ID documents from their parents, mainly in eastern Taiwan's Hualien County. And a tour agency manager identified as Liao used the documents to apply for ROC passports and for U.S. visas, which were later doctored with photos of young Chinese women.

NIA officials said Liao was able to obtain genuine ROC passports and valid U.S. visas for Chinese women seeking to smuggle into the United States, as the Taipei office of the American Institute in Taiwan does not require Taiwanese applicants younger than 14 years old to undergo an interview.

After Liao got the passports, someone else would take them to Hong Kong, where Taiwanese women hired by the gang would accompany these Chinese women to travel to the United States by serving as a pseudo companion.

More than 30 Taiwanese women, some of whom were college lecturers, former flight attendants and nurses, were employed to accompany the Chinese women, and were paid US$1,000 to US$1,500 in reward for each trip. Some of these Taiwanese women claimed to have no knowledge about the scheme.

Citing information provided by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, the corps said under the fraudulent scheme, more than 40 Chinese women have successfully entered the United States using the forged ROC passports.

Each of these Chinese women paid US$60,000 to US$70,000 to be smuggled to the United States, and the U.S. authorities strongly suspect that they might be illegally engaged in prostitution in the country, the corps said.

Meanwhile, Hualien County police authorities said they have launched an in-depth investigation into the case, because they suspect that personal data of young girls at some local aboriginal villages were illegally sold to criminal elements.

The indigenous girls' families said they were fooled into thinking the people who took their daughter's documents would help their family apply for government subsidies.

Parents found selling kids' identity to trafficking ring

TAIPEI, Taiwan -- The National Immigration Agency (NIA) recently cracked down on a Taiwanese human-trafficking ring that was smuggling children from China into the United States on Taiwan passports purchased from Taiwanese parents.

The NIA's Border Affairs Corps said in a statement Wednesday that information provided by the U.S. showed that the illegal Chinese immigrants who were arrested in the case had U.S. visas in passports supplied by a Taiwanese human trafficking ring, which was headed by a man surnamed Lin. In its investigation, the agency discovered that the crime ring had bought the identity of Taiwanese children from parents who were in financial straits.

Using the Taiwan IDs, the human traffickers acquired Republic of China passports by means of a legal loophole that allows a representative to apply for a Taiwan passport and a U.S. visa for Taiwan citizens under the age of 14.

The statement said that 20 Taiwan citizens, including 10 parents from the greater Kaohsiung area in southern Taiwan, were found to have provided IDs to the human trafficking ring.

Taipei, June 18 (CNA) Immigration authorities announced Thursday that they have smashed the largest-ever human smuggling ring in Taiwan's history, a case that involved over 50 Chinese children who were taken to the United States using fake documents obtained from Taiwanese parents and accompanied by a Taiwanese chaperone. Members of the human trafficking gang swindled local children's ID documents from their parents and used them to apply for Republic of China passports which were later doctored with photos of the Chinese children, according to the Border Affairs Corps of the National Immigration Agency.

Ring members then used these forged passports to apply for U.S.

visas. Once they got the visas in Taiwan, they took the fake passports to Hong Kong, where the fake passport holders, mainly underage children from China, would use them to travel to the United States, accompanied by one of several Taiwanese women hired by the gang to serve as a pseudo parent or guardian for the child to dupe U.S. immigration officials.

These Taiwanese women, aware or unaware of the scheme, were paid US$1,000 to US$1,500 in reward for each trip.

Under the fraudulent scheme, more than 50 Chinese children, all underage girls, have successfully entered the United States using the fake ROC passports, the corps said.

A total of 74 Taiwanese suspects allegedly involved in the smuggling operation have been handed over to the Taoyuan Prosecutors Office for further investigation, according to the agency.

The corps said it tracked down the ring after analyzing clues from scores of cases which seemed irrelevant on the surface. It finally solved the case following months of investigations.

MOI pushes legal changes to better protect children

MOI pushes legal changes to better protect children

Taipei, May 17 (CNA) Revisions to the Children and Youth Welfare Act are needed in order to better protect the well-being of minors, Interior Minister Jiang Yi-huah said Monday.

Since the welfare law was promulgated in 2003, both the general social situation and family structure in Taiwan have changed significantly, necessitating changes to the statute, Jiang said at a meeting of the Legislative Yuan's Social Welfare and Environmental Hygiene Committee.

"Amendments have therefore been drafted to provide more concrete and comprehensive protection of the rights of children and adolescents," Jiang told lawmakers.

The amendments drafted by the Ministry of the Interior (MOI) focus on two major areas -- more strictly regulating media operators and Internet service providers and establishing better adoption and foster care mechanisms to prevent illegal human trafficking, Jiang said.

Noting that the news media and the Internet have emerged as major information sources, Jiang said they should be subject to tougher rules to protect local youngsters from exposure to pornography or other inappropriate materials.

With handsets, palm games and video games becoming ever more popular among teenagers, Jiang said, it is necessary to revise the welfare law to authorize stricter management of video game software, including subjecting it to a rating system.

A self-discipline mechanism should also be developed to better insulate minors from exposure to unsuitable Internet content, Jiang said.

Once the draft amendments clear the Legislature, Jiang said, the central and local governments should cooperate closely to craft a more comprehensive protective system for minors.

On the improvement of the adoption system, the MOI-drafted amendments stipulate that only legally established foundations as well as public- or private-run child shelter organizations are eligible to serve as intermediaries in adoption cases.

The draft amendments also provide that in the event of adoption, local adoptive hopefuls should be given priority over foreign candidates.

The legislative committee completed the first review of draft amendments regarding child adoption Monday, but had yet to screen the new restrictions on media and Internet content providers. (By Ho Meng-kuei and Sofia Wu) enditem/ls

I know that Gigi Law ate those 40 million, has taken the stereo, a refrigerator, a mobile phone and Dacia Break. For that is out of money, Gigi law has sold it all. (see tab 82, vol).

             Of documents in the case file (see the tabs 206-212, vol.II) that the particular mandate, issued in Limassol on 17.12.1998, Androulla Efstathiou authorized Simion Cosmina Dana raise mandantei account, with the number 471,181,602,240 amount 4000 USD to complete its behalf of the child adoption procedure Pîrvu Madalina, the payment order no. 882 of 22.12.1998 BCR SA - Agency Stephen the Great, issued the accused Simon Dana Cosmina USD in 4000 personal account of Androulla Efstathiou, with the number shown above, according to exchange bulletin series C no. 20,179 of 22.12.1998, Simon Cosmina House Getica LLC paid $ 4000, receiving in exchange 42 million lei.

People who go abroad to adopt

People who go abroad to adopt, live, and have 2 or 3 months leave before them, must be very rich indeed. Moreover, they are not always safe to do things legally.

I strongly advise you: ask your approval in France, then find an association that you raproche an orphanage abroad and help you in your efforts. Then you'll be sure to do things within the law and adopt a child who has not been torn from his family for money.

I passed through DOCTORS OF THE WORLD
http://www.medecinsdumonde.org/fr/nos_mi ...
The advantage is that you do not move once or twice in the country (to take on your 5 weeks of paid leave) for the first time a first contact for a week, then the second time to go pick up the child when the papers are ok ...

Cost of adoption in Romania in 2000: 70,000 French Francs. I borrowed some of my grandmother and some of my bank. The cost varies by country of origin. At the same time, adopt in Brazil had cost 120,000 francs.

This cost is total cost: about half has been paid to Médecins du Monde which returns a portion to the body which manages the Romanian orphanage. This money was used to improve the lives of those who remained. The other half, are all costs (airfare, accommodation, various approaches to pay, etc ...)

Regarding age, ATTENTION! " I adopted a 6 year old child (who is 14 today 07/01), and we are living a nightmare since the beginning. I interact with many people who are in the same situation. It seems to me, but it is only my opinion, that adopted children toddlers have fewer problems.

Go visit this site on the following very interesting:

I do not want to discourage you because adoption is something really hard, and great live, but .....

Parvu si-a vandut copilul cu 42 de milioane de lei
Procurori din Parchetul de pe langa Inalta Curte de Casatie si Justitie au dispus trimiterea in judecata a lui Gheorghe Parvu pentru tranzactionarea adoptiei fiicei sale contra sumei de 42.000.000 de lei, a informat ieri, printr-un comunicat, Parchetul de pe langa ICCJ.
Gheorghe Parvu a pretins, in luna august 1998, suma de 5.000 de dolari pentru a fi de acord cu adoptia fiicei sale. El a primit, la 22 decembrie 1998 suma de 42.000.000 de lei (echivalentul a 4.000 de dolari) de la familia cipriota Efstathiou si Androulla Crysanthos care dorea sa o infieze pe minora Madalina Mariana Parvu, de 11 ani. Fetita se afla in Centrul de plasament familial Sfanta Maria pentru ca parintii (Gheorghe Parvu si Angelica Parvu) si-au dat cei trei copii in ingrijirea statului.
Mama Madalinei si-a dat, initial, acordul in privinta infierii fetei, dar dupa ce a aflat ca sotul sau a primit bani pentru a fi de acord cu adoptia, a solicitat familiei adoptatoare sa-i cumpere o locuinta. Pentru ca pretentia sa nu a fost onorata, ea a formulat un denunt penal. Plangerea sa a fost inregistrata dupa expirarea termenului legal de 30 zile in care putea fi revocat consimtamantul, Angelica Parvu nu a fost acuzata pentru ca fapta sa nu are relevanta penala.
Gheorghe Parvu a fost dat in urmarire generala pentru ca nu a putut fi gasit la nici o adresa cunoscuta. In timpul anchetei, el a declarat ca din cele 42.000.000 lei a cumparat un telefon celular (2.300.000 de lei) un frigider ( 2.100.000 de lei), un autoturism Dacia 1310 (25.500.000 de lei) pe care a vandut-o ulterior cu suma de 17.000.000 lei; telefonul celular si frigiderul le-a vandut dupa ce a ramas fara bani. Cu restul de bani, Parvu a cumparat imbracaminte, incaltaminte si mancare pentru el si concubina lui.
El va trebui insa sa plateasca 42.000.000 lei cu titlul de confiscare speciala. Cu toate ca instanta de judecata a cunoscut imprejurarile in care a fost obtinut consimtamantul tatalui, a incuviintat adoptia Madalinei Parvu de catre familia cipriota tinand cont de interesul exclusiv al minorei.
Nici o alta persoana implicata in intermedierea adoptiei nu va fi urmarita penal, precizeaza Parchetul de pe langa ICCJ.
