The Chinese regime, which has been brutally enforcing a family planning policy for half a century, is now implementing a forced birth policy to deal with the current demographic crisis.
According to a report by Radio France Internationale on January 17, the Chinese regime has begun to exert various pressures on people of childbearing age to encourage more women to have children. Since the outbreak of the Chinese virus, residents' committees and Communist Party volunteers on the streets of every Chinese city have been going from house to house to increase the population. They wear red badges, violate the privacy of women and girls, and force them to fulfill their so-called "patriotic duty" of giving birth. This forced birth practice has reminded people of the painful history of China's previous forced family planning. Some people, unable to bear the harassment of the authorities, have testified about China's forced birth practices on social media platforms.
Currently, senior Chinese officials are in a state of war with each other. Under Xi Jinping, the family planning policy was abolished, and in 2016, a policy was implemented to encourage new births. The move marks a 180-degree turn in China’s birth policy. In response to the sharp decline in the birth rate in the 21st century, the Chinese regime has tried to change the strict birth control policy that had been in place for nearly half a century and influence the choices of families.
But the orders issued by the top brass have sparked discontent and even anger among a new generation. This also shows that the gap between 21st century Chinese and 20th century Chinese is widening.
The report points out that, in fact, China’s aging population crisis has long been underway, and the sharp decline in the population has caused serious concern among key policymakers. The population problem has affected China’s goal of becoming a “strong country” and the so-called “dream of rejuvenation” promised by Xi Jinping.
