Trusting Three Gorges migrants are lured to Bright Sun City by the promise of prime land, new housing and government support, only to be cheated out of their resettlement compensation by corrupt officials. Frustrated, the migrants protest their treatment, but are branded troublemakers, harassed and thrown in jail.

Chinese journalist Dai Qing and Three Gorges Probe proudly present "Bright Sun City’s Dark Intent" by Liu Bai, the third in a series of oral histories brought to you from the Three Gorges region.
