Overall, as the table shows, China's population growth rate is steadily declining. From 1996 to 2005, the number of annual population growth fell by 4 million, that is, from 20 million births in 1996 to 16 million in 2005. And the annual mortality rate has remained essentially unchanged. It goes without saying that the birth rate of the newborn population has been effectively controlled in the past five years.

There are at least two reasons for this phenomenon. On the one hand, the government has adopted a strict fertility policy, such as allowing only one child for a couple, and the majority of the people accept that this fertility policy has contributed to the decline in the birth rate. On the other hand, the traditional attitudes of the people have changed with the times.

It is because of the family planning policy that our country is developing rapidly and steadily.
