In the same article , it is said:

"A May 23 story in the China Daily newspaper, the official English-language paper of the Chinese government, said He was 14. The story was later corrected to list her as 16."

Should we give them the benefit of doubt, before we accused sth. has no proof ?
(Even though , I think these is possiblilty of age manipulation, but is it fair
for us , just go ahaed to say that is the truth ?) hehehe
