40. It's no secret, even in China, that the Chinese government is straining to keep its rural areas...

...in line. The introduction of capitalism magnified the problem a hundred fold. They're allowing this story to get out so that they can show their people that they have genuine concern for the plight of the poor rural areas. Or at least "look" like they care. Either way, as long as the government is doing something to rescue these slaves that's about as much as we can hope for from them.
