Chinese parents are turning to parallel-goods traders to buy infant formula overseas. 

Consumers chose to buy from Hongkong. Last month, an amendment to the Hong Kong import and export law regulates that one person can only carry out two cans, or 1.8 kilos of baby formula. And that person must be at least 16 years of age and must not have left the city in the last 24 hours.
