Don't need muscle to be a loan shark in China, you just need to get hold of somebody's i.d. People pawn their i.d. Without i.d. in China you become a non-person, nothing is possible. The loan shark company uses their i.d. to set up illegal businesses. The debtor never gets their i.d. back not matter how much they pay.

There are 12 people displayed in the picture. Are they the offenders? - 'cos some of them look like the police to me...……..

The Chinese are desperate to get their money, themselves and their kids out of China.  Thailand is close, cheap and easy.

Give them time to work out their differences and settle on an acceptable level of solution.
