M'sian Man Sad To Find Poster Of Little Boy Lost Since 1998 On His Parcel From China
After 25 years, Wang Yu Yun's parents are still looking for their missing baby.
A Malaysian man recently took to Twitter to share about a strange and sad finding he came across while receiving a parcel from China
In the tweet, user @magmalaya said that he received a box after placing an order from Tmall, a Chinese online retail website that was formerly known as Taobao Mall.
After receiving the box, the man examined it and discovered a photograph of a young boy who had been missing since 1998.
"25 years and his parents are still not giving up," the Twitter user wrote.
"Come home, baby," read the title of the missing boy poster, which also included his full name, Wang Yu Yun.
It went on to say that the boy was abducted while he was playing in front of a barber shop in Xinjiang, Jincheng.

The man also uploaded a 45-second video on his Tweet, revealing all of the details that was written on the outside of the box
In the clip, the man translated the text on the box, saying, "Our country is against child kidnapping."
Based on the text written on the box, the Chinese government highlights steps that anyone could take if a child has gone missing or a missing child is found.
"If a child is missing, please call 110 as soon as possible and seek help from the police," the text read.
It also suggested bringing children suspected of being abducted to China's Ministry of Public Security for a free deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) test.
Tmall also claimed that they have successfully returned three missing children to their families with the messages on their boxes.
"May good things happen, may every love lead to a reunion," it added.

"He just turned 30 last January. May his family persevere," wrote one user.
