This time, she wouldn't see her son for more than two years.



She tried to obtain her son's whereabouts but all efforts were unfruitful. She was completely out of touch with both her husband and his family.



She lodged a police report a month later but was told by the police that they could not help since it was not against the law in China for a father to hide a child from the mother.



She also asked for help from the Malaysian consulate in Shanghai but they were unable to help her since she didn't have full custody of the child.
