An estimated 140 million people from China''s vast rural areas have swarmed into cities since China began reform more than 20 years ago, contributing to the country''s economic boom by staffing construction sites, factories and restaurants.
But they have met barriers in obtaining access to social benefits such as health care and education for their children. Public schools mainly admit local students.
