Gender imbalance in population

As for the ratio of boys to girls in India, Vietnam, Korea, Taiwan, and China, boys count more than girls’ count, which means in the future we would have a lot of bachelors. The result is parents like to have boy more than girl because of the culture. We can know that too many parents care about producing a boy. In china, the government limited parents so that they just can have one child; also, the parents want to produce a boy because of culture. Also China has a big problem, that they have too many boys and few girls. The government bans people’s discriminating against a baby before the baby was born, and the parents would receive a combined annual pension for bringing up their girls, because they don’t want people pursuing producing boys.

I think the gender imbalance in population is a big problem; many counties have the same problem. Also they have some way of solution; I think the way maybe can succeed but if we ant to solve this problem completely we should change people’s thinking, and made them understand that a girl is as good as boy.

India
754 girls per 1000 boys

Vietnam
760 girls per 1000 boys

South Korea
880 girls per 1000 boys

Taiwan
910 girls per 1000 boys

China
830 girls per 1000 boys
