Spot the difference between the heading of this thread:
"96 Million Missing Women in Asia"

And the title of the original story:
"Asia 'missing' 96 million women: UN"

The first seems to say that these 96 million missing women are in Africa, but doesn't say where they are missing from.

The second tells us where they are missing from, but doesn't tell us where they are. This is the true meaning of "missing".
