這兩天，有關(guān)“二孩”政策的消息鋪天蓋地，小伙伴們一時有些摸不著頭腦。“二孩”意味著“計劃生育”政策的終結(jié)嗎?這到底是怎么回事呢?
10月29日，中共中央委員會正式發(fā)布了有關(guān)“全面二孩”政策的公告，將進一步放松已經(jīng)施行了30多年的計劃生育政策(family planning policy)。
報告指出，“全面二孩政策(universal two-child policy)”將有效解決中國人口老齡化的趨勢。
2013年，十八屆三中全會決定施行“單獨二孩”政策，但是效果并不盡如人意。“全面二孩政策”的調(diào)整，希望解決未來有可能出現(xiàn)的勞動力短缺等問題。
據(jù)中國日報報道，我國老齡化程度不斷加深，人口紅利逐漸消失。所以，全面實施二孩政策，是國家積極開展應(yīng)對人口老齡化行動，促進人口均衡發(fā)展的一項舉措。
China further relaxed its more than three-decade-old family planning policy, according to astatement issued on Thursday (Oct 29) by the Communist Party of China Central Committee.
Roughly 90 million Chinese couples will become eligible to have a second child.
It’s the latest move by the authorities to finetune the family planning policy, amid the nation’schanging demographics, which could lead to potential labor shortages in the future if notaddressed.
The statement said the country’s aging trend would be actively addressed by the universal two-child policy, and that China would continue to stick to the family planning policy as a basic Stateinterest.
In late 2013, the central government relaxed the family planning policy, allowing couples to havea second child in situations where one spouse was an only child. As of June, only 1.5 million of the11 million eligible couples had applied to have a second child.
【Key Points】
“二孩”并不等于“二胎”。如果第一胎生的是雙胞胎(twins)、三胞胎 (triplets)、四胞胎(quadruplets)、五胞胎(quintuplets)或龍鳳胎(pigeon pair)，就不符合“二孩”政策的要求。
