Well, I know for a fact that it's incredibly easy to fake birth certificate ... two of the Chinese employees here were born in little tiny towns and the "birth certificate" doesn't always exist. So their family contacted someone when they were moving here and they had them made.

While I agree the Chinese girls look young, everyone looks young to me anymore. And it wouldn't be surprising with the pressures associated with hosting and putting on a good face that ages were faked. It's sad if it's true because eventually the truth will come out and should they continue to compete, one day they'll just be viewed as cheaters instead of true athletes.

Without any proof though, all of it is perception and hearsay ... and it is innocent until proven guilty, right?
