Remarriage in Post-Quake Communities
Nation, page 9
Construction worker Wu Jiafang, 54, showing his marriage certificate at home in Mianzhu, Sichuan. He tied the knot for a second time recently and drew national spotlight. Wu became the symbol of a loving husband in the aftermath of the Sichuan earthquake in May, after a photograph - which featured him carrying his dead wife on his back and riding a motorbike to give her a final sent off - was widely circulated in the media. The photograph moved millions of Chinese, including his new wife, Liu Rurong, 45, who was based in Shenzhen and initiated contact after reading news about him. Wu was not alone in picking up the pieces again by way of remarriage; many of those widowed by the earthquake had found new partners who shared the post-quake grief.
