Bullet train tickets to be issued with names
A notice informing travelers that a real-name system will be implemented for bullet train tickets is posted at Beijing South Railway Station, as people line up to buy tickets, May 18, 2011. Bullet train tickets will be sold based on real names in Beijing, starting at 3:00 pm Sunday, May 22, when travelers will have to provide their ID cards. The real-name system is aimed at fighting ticket-scalping, which has long been a headache for Chinese travelers. [Photo/Asianewsphoto]
