Problems solved.

Problem #1: China's "one-child" family planning policy and age-long preference for sons have led to a shortage of girls. The ratio for boys to girls is approaching 1.2.

Problem #2: Australia and New Zealand are experiencing "man-drought," possibly due to the migration of male workers.

Yes, see where I am going with this? Extra Chinese men and extra Outback ladies. Sure, the two group hardly seem a match made in heaven. And the 20,000 surplus of women from Down Under will hardly fix the problem of China, which has a population wrong side of 1 billion. But surely there are other countries in need of some able male bodies. Russia maybe? Hey you want globalization and exporting? How about exporting the extra Chinese bachelors, eligible or not.
