china ends one child policy ..

[Sai Jai]

China has dropped its controversial
one-child policy bowing to pressures
imposed by the prospects of an ageing
society and a growing shortfall in the
workforce.
The decision allowing couples to have
two children was taken by the Chinese
Communist Party (CPC) on Thursday.
The policy change is an advance over
the 2013 ruling, which allowed
couples, where one of the parents was
a single child, to have two children.
Pressure was mounting on the
authorities to ease family-size norms
after it became evident that the one-
child policy meant to restrain a
burgeoning population in the
seventies, was leading to severe
labour shortages and an ageing
population.
According to UN estimates, nearly 440
million people in China would be over
60 by 2050, signaling a sharp decline in
the labour pool. Last year, the working
population between the ages 15-59
slid by 3.71 million. Read more: China ends controversial one-child policy amid shrinking workforce: The Hindu - Mobile edition

This is why China is not a free country to live. No matter how develop the infrastructure or economy is, if basic human rights are not being met, all these things look futile.
