From China Daily……

A draft law in Liaoning province makes it an obligation for adult children to contact or visit their parents regularly.

It is the first legislation of its kind in the country.

The province’s standing committee of the people’s congress recently released the draft – Regulation on Protection of Rights and Interests of the Aged – to seek public opinion.

It is expected to become law by the end of the year.

An article says if children do not live with their parents, they should “often send greetings or go home to visit them”.
