A New Frontier for Asian E Commerce: Vietnamese Women
You can purchase pretty much anything on China's booming e-commerce sites. And that's not the only living, breathing partner you will get yourself online. There are a quantity of dating sites which, running in a legal gray area, could effectively help Chinese men to buy a Vietnamese woman. As if that's insufficient, one website, Ynxn1314.com (shown above), offers cut price group buy trip offers.
It's a fascinating – if fairly dubious – organization, and something that was examined by theGlobal Times earlier nicely . Match making across boundaries for profit is illegal in China, although it's among the many areas which are added in a lax manner.
I understand our company isn't allowed from the Chinese government, but there's no punishment. The marriages of our clients continue to be appropriate even though we're turn off.
True enough. Nevertheless the site's workers – it feels wrong to term this a "startup" – deny that they have a 'daily deals' kind of way of match making, and state to matchmake their clients properly. Also, all of the Vietnamese women who locate a suitor enter the country legally.
Crossing the Mekong
Ynxn1314 relies in Kunming, in southwestern China's Yunnan province, which borders Burma, Laos, and onVietnam. What it's doing isn't new, and meets an incredibly clear need around any other dating website in China, for example Jiayuan (NASDAQ:TIME) or Baihe.
Contrary to some stereotypes of socalled mail-order brides, a lot of the matches on Ynxn1314 appear age-appropriate, as observed in its gallery of seemingly pleased matches. It doesn't often work out for the matches that different marriage agencies make, however, having a variety of brides – filled both with anxiety, guilt, or culture shock – reportedly fleeing back for their homeland.
Industry it addresses is potentially massive, as China's standard preference for male beneficiaries produces a worrying gender difference. Some estimates put the variation as high as30 million in quantities. That's plenty of bachelors.
Therefore, despite operating on a shady periphery of the Chinese ecommerce scene, such cross-border match making sites appear set to succeed until the authorities decide to clamp down
