Starting January 1, 2016, Chinese couples will be allowed to have two children. Chinese lawmakers unveiled the new law, which ends the long-standing one-child policy, during a session of the National People's Congress Standing Committee. The policy is largely seen as an attempt to assist with the country's aging population problem; but human rights activists say it doesn't go far enough in liberating potential parents from government control.
Always tell someone how you feel because opportunities are lost in the blink of an eye but regret can last a lifetime.

Interesting development. But of course "human rights activists" seem to ignore that much of China is over-populated...so...

This is great news for chinese couples although it might lead to some kind of over population as the time passes. I read somewhere that when the one child policy remained only rich people could have more than one child by bribing social workers.

Overpopulation in a few decades I guess. However with this law, the rich are no longer in advantage. Now everyone can have 2 kids! I guess it's logical to allow this as there are a bunch of seniors in China. We have to replace them somehow.
