Cannibalism which involves any species on earth eating a fellow member of the same species was considered normal during the evolutionary development till human beings emerged, though there were instances of cannibalism among fierce tribal that lived in remote jungles. But in modern world such practices are considered inhuman and never tolerated. Now comes the news that in the most "lovable" China cannibalism is being exported to other countries albeit surreptitiously! Recent revelation that dried and ground human flesh, encapsulated, is being smuggled into South Korea is one of the most bizarre developments generating shock and revulsion among fellow human beings all across the world. Here is the gist of the above news which reveals the "ethos" of the so called world power!
"South Korea has said that it will increase customs check on capsules coming from China that contained powdered human flesh. The Korea Customs Service said it had found that almost 17,500 capsules were being smuggled into the country from China since August 2011. According to the BBC, inspection will be increased on the shipments of drugs arriving from northeast China. Officials have said that the powdered flesh was made from dead babies and foetuses and reportedly cured disease and boost stamina".
Of course Chinese may justify their action through many explanations but still it is a practice that cannot be condoned by the world. It is true that fresh cadaver is used extensively world around for harvesting precious organs which provides new life to millions of people affected by various diseases involving eyes, heart, liver, pancreas, kidney etc but this is done in a transparent way through legal route. There is a vital difference between this universally accepted practice and processing of human flesh for human consumption what ever is the source. As China is a country with no practicing democracy, every thing it does is shrouded in secrecy and therefore one may not know from where the human flesh is "harvested" for processing into capsules and the situation becomes more grim when seized samples of these capsules were found highly contaminated with bacteria raising fears about their safety. It is time that world raises its voice in unison to condemn this country which behaves irrationally and arrogantly in many ways!
