Chinese Population Issues, Part 5

What is the better approach to the issue of China’s massive population? This is a complex question that can only be addressed through consistent policy choices over generations. Chinese culture is durable and has survived incredible hardships throughout the centuries. A large population can be provided for and sustained through responsible policies that both respect the dignity, conscience and rights of each person, and encourage procreation that supports and sustains the prosperity of China. First, it must be the priority of the government leaders to initiate the change. Some concrete directives that could be pursued must address and change the long held attitudes towards women and their position in society, implementing some type of pension system to aid in providing for the elderly, shifting the attitude of looking at people in strictly economic terms, and improving the social, economic and human rights situation to enhance the conditions within the country.
