I stand in a neutral position because I think there is pros and cons to it.
At that point of time,many family gave birth to 7or 8 kids,this led to a quick increase of population in such a small country,which we can handle because of the housing issues.Hence at that time,birth control is needed.
However,the birth control now had led to back fire which caused some family to only give birth to one kid.Singapore's average birth rate is 1.2,it is not enough to replace both parent and also,the only child will have more stress due to being the only one to support the whole family,which may consist of 3-4 generation up to 12 people for the child to support.
Hence,I think that the 2-child policy can be used but to a certain extend.
3 things I found out:
-some policies may backfire
-with only a child In the family,stress will be huge.
-policies will have pros and cons,there will definitely not be a definite good policy that will guarantee a success,because it is just whether you can predict it or not or will the side effect show when time comes.
2 perception I gained
-nothing is a definite
-everything has its pros and cons
1 question I have:
Why did PM Lee allowed this policy if it will have a after effect?
