China should modify one-child policy, allow two kids: advisor:
[World News]: Beijing, Mar 10 : China should modify the mandatory one child per couple family planning policy to allow two kids foe tackling emerging social problems as well as gender imbalance, a top advisor has suggested.

The current "one-kid" policy should be "cautiously" modified so as to allow more births in the world's most populous nation, the 'Beijing Morning Daily' quoted Wang Xiang, a member of the 10th National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC), as saying.

Wang said that a more lenient family planning policy will address problems arising out of aging and widening imbalance between the number of boys and girls born in the country.

He noted that China's family planning policy, featured by permitting one couple to have only one child, has been carried out only in urban areas.

In the vast rural areas, more than one kid is allowed for each couple so that there is sufficient labour force there. But it makes it difficult in getting proper education to rural children.

In order to have more than one child, some people "hired women" to carry their babies or have even resorted to have "a mysterious second wife", creating moral problems and undermining social order.

Wang appealed for prudence on the part of the Chinese government in readjusting its family planning policy and suggested "two kids" be set as the ceiling in a new policy.

But the proposal could take quite some time to materialise as the Communist government is determined to maintain a "stable birth control policy". PTI
