32. China’s One Child policy
New changes:
Relaxed policy
In the late 1990’s, the one child policy’ was relaxed to a ‘two child policy’ in many rural districts in order to avoid the problems an ageing population could bring.
Rural families could have more than one child if the first was a girl and at least 5 in order to help on the farms.
2013- couples that are both only children can have more than one child
Ethnic minorities living in China can now have more than one child. This is only a small minority often living in remote districts, impacting China in a minor way.
Where: China, Asia
When: Since 1979
Why: To limit rapid population growth
What: The policy-
Limits couples to having only one child.
They get benefits for this e.g. free education, education and housing benefits; pensions
If they have more than one child, they loose these benefits and are fined
Couples have to apply for a license to marry and have a child.
The majority (91%) of all Chinese people are ‘Han’ Chinese. The policy only applies to the ethnic Han Chinese living in urban areas. Citizens living in rural areas and minorities living in China are not subject to the law.
Has it been successful? Yes- it has in a country of 1.3 billion, the population policy has reduced population growth by as much as 300 million over its first twenty years.
HOWEVER –
The one child policy has affected the ratio of males to females. There are currently 114 males for every 100 females.
Males are favoured over females and many female infants are aborted, neglected or abandoned. Cases of infanticide have been known to occur to female infants.
