发帖数: 2882 | 1 Over 330mn abortions in China in 40 years of one-child policy - ministry
http://rt.com/news/china-abortions-population-control-353/
More than 330 million abortions and almost 200 million sterilizations have
been performed in China since family-planning policies to limit the
population were introduced 40 years ago, the country’s Health Ministry has
revealed.
Measures to encourage fewer children in China were introduced in the 1970s,
including the one-child rule. The goal behind the policies was to minimize
population growth to save resources, such as food and water.
Data also revealed that the government has done more than a half-billion
birth control procedures, including the mandatory insertion of some 403
million of intra-uterine devices – a practice considered a regular birth
control procedure in the West, if chosen voluntarily – the Financial Times
reported.
China’s Science and Research Institute blames a lack of sex education for
the high number of abortions, stating that less than 10 percent of couples
use condoms on a regular basis.
The one-child policy prevents urban families from having more than one child
. Exemptions apply to twins, rural couples, ethnic minorities and couples
who are both minors. The rule is currently being criticized in China for
decreasing the country’s population.
China currently has a population of 1.3 billion. Chinese doctors have
performed 8.2 million abortions annually for the past 40 years – enough to
re-populate London, UK, 40 times.
For the first time in 40 years, China’s younger labor force dropped last
year, which economists warn can be devastating for a developing country. “
This makes China’s population look more like a developed country than a
developing one, which is a key disadvantage in labor-intensive industries,”
economist Ken Peng told the Financial Times.
Former vice minister at the Health Ministry Huang Jiefu argued that a new “
family-planning policy” must be found “to fit with the times,” the
International Business Times reported.
The new Chinese President Xi Jinping is pursuing such a policy by merging
the National Population and Family-Planning Commission with the Health
Ministry, which could trigger a move away from the country's restrictive
birth-control policies.
"Where else in the world can you find a family-planning bureau? It was quite
appropriate to fold it into the [Health] Ministry,” Huang added.
An expert demographer believes that the merger will reduce the power of the
family-planning commission: “It won’t have the ability to design policies
and it will have less say in the country’s population strategy,” He Yafu
told the Financial Times.
Population control has also affected gender ratios in China, with parents
preferring males and selectively aborting female fetuses, leading to an
imbalance of 34 million more men than women.
According to He, a relaxed policy may be introduced nationwide, allowing two
parents who are single children themselves, to have two kids. This rule
has already been implemented in some cities across the country on a trial
basis.
The country has generally supported the one-child policy in the past. Three
in four citizens believe that without it, the country’s population would be
30 percent higher at 1.7 billion not 1.3 billion, which would have drained
the nation's resources, according to 2008 Pew Research Center survey. | N******K
