[quote=YINDUFFY,301153]How many in China know that in 1953 when the Prisoners of War (POWs) were to be returned he UN had about 132,000 Korean and Chinese POWs? Under supervision of a Neutral Nations Commission, each prisoner was individually interviewed and fewer than 90,000 chose to return home. Of Chinese prisoners not more than 1 in 5 wanted to go home. Most claimed to be old soldiers of Chaing Kai-Shek forcibly inducted into the PLA who then considered themselves political refugees. The interview process was supervised by the Indian Army. 13,000 Ex-Chinese soldiers went to Taiwan after being released from UN custody. Additionally, the UN countries were shocked to find that 58% of the prisoners taken by the Communist forces died in prison camps. The communists never allowed neutral inspectors in the camps.[/quote]
