Just read an article today which I found quite interesting. Japan's birth rate has went up, and its now almost 0.1 higher than Singapore.
Other than that, I read with great interest that Japan links her economy health to the birth rate. They said that due to the good economy health, their birth rate increased.
Why I think this makes sense. When the healthy economy filters down to the general public, you can afford to raise kids. Having a healthy work-life allows you to find time to make babies too. :)
Wonder when the Singapore government will stop their sense of denial and try to fix the problem... Good economy? For them maybe...
