Xinhua: "China needs more soul savers"

Ah, don't get your hopes up. The official government news agency Xinhua isn't calling for Christian evangelists, but rather for more psychologists:

There are too few psychologists in China to deal with these broken hearts and pining minds. One expert speaking at the Third Annual Meeting of Psychiatry and Psychological Consulting in the United States said there were 550 psychologists and psychiatrists to 1 million people in the USA - yet in China, there were no more than five.

But the headline is still an apt choice of words, because from what I've heard, China is in a huge spiritual vacuum. I've also read that China has one of the highest rates of suicide. Yes, China does need more soul savers.
