3 things I found out

1.       Singapore’s two-child policy was implemented in 1972

2.       The reason why China’s one-child policy and Singapore’s two-child policy were implemented is almost the same.

3.       Both China and Singapore reversed their policies.

2 perceptions I have gained

1.       When Singapore decided to reverse the policy, it was not very effective as birth rates still remained low.

2.       Even though having lesser children can help to control birth rates, it could cause problems for the future generations such as over-competitiveness and stress because the parents expect their only child to be successful in life.

1 question that I have

1.       How long does it take for the reversed policy to change the mindsets of others?
