He Yanfu told the China Times that there was a 90% chance that a fully liberalized birth policy will be implemented in 2019.
The Chinese government has hinted at more children per family with a stamp for the year of the Pig. The stamp has a pig family with three children. In 2016, before the introduction of the two child policy there was a stamp with two children.

Most of the world has shrinking populations as we switched from urban to rural populations. We end up having to make up for it with immigration here in the US. I would be interested to see whether China can beat the population decline trap the rest of the developed world has fallen into.
Chinese anthropomorphic cartoon characters are creepy.
Yay! Even more overpopulation!
Sounds good. How long’s it take to make a 15 year old, again?

Last couple of generations were instilled with the one-child program. Will require the current preteens to accept the newer policy and buck the now established cultural norm. Probably will require some incentives to jump-start.
What does the leadership fear by just letting what be what will be? Demographic crisis and whatever… You already interfered with the long standing one-child policy. Gotta let that damp out however it does. If China sees a decline in population, then GOOD. Sure, there are going to be lots of elderly. Ok. Keep ’em fed and clothed and don’t spend a million dollars trying to save the ones that get cancer or emphysema. The term is palliative care. That heroic money spent trying to save my father was wasted; even he said so.
Don’t need birth restrictions anymore. Higher income urban living and an educated population will naturally limit population growth. Also the skewed difference in the female/male population is baked in and that means a continuing decline in population.

Just short of 16 years.
Because the proper role of government is to determine how many kids you can have and to hint ant their policies based on stamp sizes. Ye Gods. How long until the government dictates child births?
The problem is that the current generation of Chinese has realized (much like their Western counterparts) that having zero kids results in a more lavish lifestyle. Not all great filters are asteroids.
If only there was some third option between overpopulation and cutting your population in half every generation. Gosh darn it I’m just so stumped.
They won’t.
No one can. Not even the Africans.
Won’t happen.

Assuming you start with all necessary tools and supplies to begin with. If you have to first find a willing partner it could be a while longer.
