虽然我的英语不怎么样,但也尝试着把这件事情用英语写出来。不单单为了我自己所碰到的困难,更多的是为了让世界各地的人们了解发生在一个普普通通的中国人身上的一件真实的事情,而不仅是通过电视或其他媒体所看到的中国。
  
  Title: The Goverment of Shunde District forces us to break the Family Planning Policy?
  
  Though my english is not good, I will still try to record a story happening on myself. It is not only for showing the difficulties I met with,instead, I wish people can see a more real China from this story happening on an ordinary person, and not only from the TV or other medias. The story in Chinese can be found at http://www.tianya.cn/techforum/content/828/61866.shtml .
  
  As we know, there is a Family Planning Policy in China, it is a good policy for preventing the rapidly growth of population. And my story is just relevant to this policy, especially the attitude of those goverment staff treated it. The story is as below:
  
  My girl friend lives in Shunde District of Guangdong Province, I will use Qing as her name here. Qing has a daughter with her ex-husband. In 2004, Qing divorced from her ex-husband. At that time, they processed the divorce procedure in the goverment office, and the aggreement was that the fostering rights of their daughter belonged to Qing. But about 1 month later, the ex-husband argued for the fostering rights of their daughter. After some negocaitions, both families made a 2nd agreement themselves, that the fostering rights of their daughter belonged to the ex-husband. Qing, her ex-husband and their parents all agreed and signed on the 2nd agreement.
  
  Some years later, in 2010, I and Qing had the plan to marry and have another baby. Then we found a problem. Theoratically, if Qing has no fostering rights of her only daughter, then I and Qing can have another baby, it complies with the Family Planning Policy. But then we know, the 2nd agreement is made by themselves and it was never submitted to the goverment office. So, on Apr. 6 2010, I sent an email to the goverment hotline of Shunde District, enquiring for the help and solution to this issue.
  
  On Apr. 13 2010, I got an reply from goverment hotline. Accroding to the law, if the new family has no children, they can have the right for a baby. BUT, there is a very special regulation of Guangdong Province, that is, the goverment will only acknowledge the fostering right when divorce, and the change of fostering right will not be acknowledged by goverment. Which means, officially Qing still has the fostering right of her daughter, if we have another baby, it will break the Family Planning Policy.
  
  It seems the reason is that we don't know the law and regulation clearly, but to all friends we talked about this issue, none of them knows about this very special regulation of Guangdong Province. Then in the next couples of weeks, I sent several emails to goverment hotline, emphasizing the fact, e.g. the 2nd agreement is signed about 1 month after divorce, with signatures of both families, the fact that the ex-husband didn't get any advantage from the 1st incorrect agreement, etc. We also think of collecting evidents, e.g. the daughter has lived in the ex-husband's home for many years, and sue to the court to prove the fostering rights actually belongs to the ex-husband. But the goverment hotline just reply with the brief and coldhearted regulation, totally despite the current fact, totally despite the original intention of the Family Planning Policy.
  
  We truely understand the purpose of the Family planning Policy, but under the merciless of goverment staff, this policy has been changed as a cruel tool to tackling the ordinary people, to get more unfair fine for penalty. According to goverment, if people has one extra child, then they must pay social compensation fees to the goverment. In Shunder District, one must pay at least 150,000rmb fine for an extra birth. The annual average income of workers in Shunde District is about 40,000rmb, so the penalty which can also be much more that 150,000rmb is really a big burden to ordinary people.
  
  I have posted this issue in Chinese on BBS since May 2010, including each email I sent to and receive from goverment hotline. it is more than 1 and a half year now. I will go on and wish such unfair thing will disappear one day. "All men are created equal".

( "A Farewell to Arms" is one of my favourite book, I will try to type it down here)
  
  1. In the late summer of that year we lived in a house in a village that looked across the river and the plain to the mountaions. In the bed of the river there were pebbles and boulders, dry and white in the sun , and the water was clear and swiftly moving and blue in the channels.. Troops went by the house and down the road and the dust they raised powdered the leaves of the trees. The trunks of the trees too were dusty and the leaves fell early that year and we saw the troops marching along the road and the dust rising and leaves, stirred by the breeze, falling and the soldiers marching and afterward the road bare and white except for the leaves.

The plain was rich with crops; there were many orchards of fruit trees and beyond the plain the mountains were brown and bare. There was fighting in the mountains and at night we could see the lfashes from the artillery . In the dark it was like summer lightning, but the nights were cool and there was not the feeling of a storm coming.

Sometimes in the dark we heard the troops marching under the window and guns going past pulled by motor-tractors. There was much traffic at night and many mules on the roads with boxes of ammunition on each side of their pack-saddles and gray motor trucks that carried men, and other trucks with loads covered with canvas that moved slower in the traffic. There were big guns too that passed in the day drawn by tractors, the long barrels of the guns covered with green branches and green leafy branches and vines laid over the tractors. To the north we could look across a valley and see a forest of chestnut trees and beihind it another mountain on this side of the river. There was fighting for that mountain too, but it was not successful , and in the fall when the rains cam the leaves all fell from the chestnut trees and the branches were bare and the trunks black with rain. The vineyards wre thin and bare -branched too and all the country wet and brown and dead with the autumn. There were mists over the river and clouds on the mountain and the truck s were wet and under theri capes the two leather cartridge-boxes on the front of th belts, gray leather boxes heavy with the paks of clips of thin , long 6.5mm . cartridges, bulged forward under the capes so that the men, passing on the road, marched as though they were six months gone with child.

There were small gray motor cars that passed going very fast;usually there was an officer on the seat with the driver and more officers in the back seat. They splashd more mud that the camions even and if one of the officers in the back was very small and sitting between two generals, he himself so small that you could not see his face but only the top of his cap and his narrow back, and if the car went especially fast it was probably the King. He lived in Udine and cam out in this way nearly every day to see how things were going and things wentvery baly.

At the start of the winter came the permanent rain and with the rain came the cholera. But it was checked and in the end only seven thousand died of it in the army.

  The next year there were many victories. The mountain that was beyond the valley and the hillside where the chestnut forest grew was captured and there were victories beyond the plain on the plateau to the south and we crossed the river in August and lived in a house in Gorizia that had a fountain and many thick shady trees in a walled garden and a sistaria vine purple on the side of the house. Now the fighting was in the next mountains beyond and was not a mile away . The town was very nice and our house was veryf fine. The river ran behind us and the town had been captured very handsomely but the mountains beyond it could not be taken and I was very glad the Austrains seemed to want to come back ot the town some time, if ther war should end, because they did not bombard it to destroy it but only a little in a military way. People lived on in it and there were hospitals and cafes and artillery up side streets and two bawdy houses,one for troop and one for officers, and with the end of the summer, the cool nights, the fighting in the mountains beyond the town, the shell-marked iron of the railway bridge, the smashed tunnel by the river where the fighting had been, the trees around the square and the long avenue of trees that led to the square; these with there being girls in the town, the King passing in his motor car, sometimes now seeing his face and little long necked body and gray beard like a goat's chin tuft; all these with the sudden interiors of houses that had lost a walll through shelling, with plaster and rubble in their gardens and sometimes in the street, and the whole thing going well on the carso made the falll very different from the last falll when we had been in the country . The war was changed too.

Later, below in the town , I watched the snow falling, looking out of the window of the bawdy house, the ouse for officers, where I sat with a friend and two glasss drinking a bottle of Asti, and , looking out at the snow falling slowly and heavily, we knew it was all over for that year. Up the river the mountains had not been taken,; none of the mountains beyond the river had been taken. That was all left for next year. My friend saw the priest from our mess going by in the street , walking carefully in the slush , and pounded on the window to attract his attention. The priest looked up. He saw us and smilled . My friend motioned for him to come in. The priest shook his head and went on . That night in the mess after spaghetti course, which every one ate very quickly and seriously, lifting the spaghetti on the forck untill the looose strands hung clear then lowering it into the mouth ,o r else using a continuous lift and sucking into the mouth , helping ourselves to wine from the grass-vovered gallon flask; it swung in ta metal cradle and you pulled the neck of the flask sown with the forefinger and the wine, clear red, tannic and lovely, poured out into the glass held with the same hand; after this course, the captain commenced picking on the priest.

The priest was young and blushed easily and wore a u niform like the rest of us but with a cross in dark red velvet above the left breast pocket of his gray tunic, The captain spoke pidgin Italian for my doubtful benefit, in order that I might understand perfectly, that nothing should be lost.
