Inter-Country Adoption Issues In The Headlines

Below is a list of recent articles that highlight problems that can arise in inter-country adoptions.  Some are agency-related issues, others are broader concerns in the country.  Even though most of these are not directly related to Cambodia, it is helpful to know what red flags to be looking for and to understand the scope of the problems.  In addition, corrupt agencies often shut down and re-open under new names, or employees may move from agency to agency, so knowing the names of individuals involved in fraudulant activities may help when doing research for your adoption.
