Beijing, CHINA: TO GO WITH Technology-China-health-addiction-Internet by Peter Harmsen Some 20-odd teenagers assemble at the Internet Addiction Treatment Centre in the southeastern suburb of Daxing in Beijing, 01 March 2007, all placed there involuntarily by their family, to go through a strict regimen that might as well be boot camp -- and for good reason, since this is an army-run clinic inside a military district. China has an estimated altogether 2.5 million Internet addicts, overwhelmingly young, male and attracted to online games, a growing problem in a country with 137 million online users.
