Thanks for translating extracts from the official tutorials and guides to the Plenary resolutions.

China’s fertility rate is shockingly low. I wonder what it says about contemporary Chinese society and the hopes that the young Chinese have for the future.

Having said that, I think it’s a missed opportunity for China not to supplement their fertility policies with migration, especially from Africa and other parts of the world that anticipate a population boom in the years ahead. Successfully settling migrants is not straightforward but it isn’t impossible.

China should anticipate a future population with substantial second and third generation migrants. They will add dynamism to China’s society while enhancing China’s soft power in the world. It’s an opportunity to be grasped!
