About

Unimaginable....

The tragic story of a Chinese toddler struck by two vehicles while more than a dozen bystanders stood idly by has stirred up a hive of mixed emotions around the world.

As English-language media detailed the video capturing the moments when two-year-old Wang Yue of Foshan was run over by two separate cars and ignored by the 18 people who left her lying in the road, the whole world  struggles to reconcile its anxiety over moral norms in China with disgust at the way the incident was depicted in the international press.


UPDATECHINESE police have arrested two drivers suspected of running over a toddler who died a week after she was struck on a busy market street in southern China only to be ignored by passers-by. Read more:

Memories

Touched by an angel

Charlotte Jan 23, 2013

I did not know you but even after more than a year, your story still breaks my heart.
I do not know whether there is a heaven, but if there is you will be there.
I hope your parents have been able to begin finding peace, even though they will never forget you - and I hope they found some comfort when the world shed a tear on that tragic and awful day.
Rest in peace sweetheart

Our angel Yue Yue

RN Oct 26, 2012

Luke 18.16 Jesus, however, called the children to himself and said, " Let the children come to me and do not prevent them, for the Kingdom of God belongs to such as these."
Yue Yue, you have become a little angel to many of us. May God bless your soul.

One year ago today

Josh Oct 14, 2012

It's been a year already and after learning what happened to
You I haven't been the same. I've openly wept for you
Many times. It breaks my heart terribly to know
You are gone. I've never met you but I am still
So sad you are gone little yue yue. I really,really hope
You are in a much better place. I'm not a religious man
But I hope for your sake there is a heaven and you are there enjoying
The beautiful life you rightfully deserve.
You will never be forgotten little angel
