3 cases of Taiwanese high-tech talents detained in China. Mainland Affairs Council reveals shocking data again

The Mainland Affairs Council today (14th) released the "Weekly Report on the Safety of Chinese Traveling to China, Hong Kong and Macao". According to the "Weekly Report on the Safety of Chinese Traveling to China, Hong Kong and Macao", 479 Chinese were missing, detained for questioning, or suspected of having their personal freedom restricted while traveling to China, an increase of 9 compared to the previous week. The Mainland Affairs Council pointed out that as of the end of October in 2015, there had been a cumulative increase of 194 people, with an average of 19.4 new people per month; compared with the same period in previous years (January to October), the increase was 1.07 times that of 2014 and 4.77 times that of the same period in 2013.

SEF Secretary-General Luo Wenjia said on the 13th that there were three cases of Taiwanese high-tech talents who went to China in August and September this year and their personal freedom was restricted. Not all of them were after China implemented new immigration management regulations on September 15. These people work in Taiwan and are on a short-term business trip to China, and have not participated in political or religious activities. The most worrying thing about this type of case is that "the parties involved may not even know why they were arrested."

According to statistics from the Mainland Affairs Council, from January 1, 2013 to November 13, 2015, 479 Chinese nationals who went to China lost contact, were detained for questioning, or were suspected of having their personal freedom restricted. An increase of 9 people compared with the previous week (as of November 6th, there were 470 people).

The Mainland Affairs Council pointed out that 479 Chinese nationals who went to China have lost contact, were detained for interrogation, or suspected of having their personal freedom restricted, of which 183 were reported missing (180 last week, 3 new people this week), 43 were detained for interrogation (no new this week), and 253 were detained by China (247 last week, 6 new this week).

The Mainland Affairs Council stated that the total number of people in 2013 was 55 (an average of 4.58 people per month), and in 2014 it was 221 (an average of 18.4 people per month), an increase of 4 times.
