I am my mother’s fourth child, the third one miscarried four years before I was born. My mother inherited a lot of illnesses from her father, including a weak heart and hypertension. When my mother consulted her doctor upon learning that she was pregnant with me, she was advised to go see someone who would […]

Singapore’s Folly, Again

From this article: Singaporeans need to marry and have children if they do not want the country to fold up, Mr Lee Kuan Yew warned on Saturday night. In his annual National Day dinner speech to residents of Tanjong Pagar GRC and Tiong Bahru, Mr Lee kept his message on population simple: The country’s citizens […]

A lengthy production from the 700 Club, but well worth watching. No, it’s not only the Catholic Church that believes the RH bill should not be passed.

Overpopulation is a Fallacy

Overpopulation is a fallacy No less that the director general of the National Economic and Development Authority, Arsenio Balisacan, told the Senate that the UN had set a 2.1-percent fertility rate in the country.

“Planned Parenthood” or Population Control

August 30, 2012 by

From Carmen Pedrosa: Planned parenthood or population control? From a personal level I believe in the freedom of choice and that choice belongs to the individual. We do not need a law for that. It is presumed in a free and democratic country. Even when the bill is passed it will not change. Educated women […]

Very interesting and enlightening post by BongV at AntiPinoy: Population Size/Density/Growth Rate, Ease of Doing Business or Why the RH Bill is a Scam What this all adds up to is that poverty is not caused by population size, population density, or population growth rate for that matter.

Let the Truth Be Told

Enrile does what he does best, reveal the logic (or maybe we should call it “illogic”) of those who think population control = progress. “Are you suggesting (we) adopt … population control in the country?” asked Enrile, who attended a rally sponsored by the Catholic Church on Saturday in a show of clout—somehow dampened by […]

Killing the Goose that Lays the Golden Eggs

August 11, 2012 by

0

Passing the RH Bill would be killing the goose that lays the golden eggs. Already China and Thailand – still with relatively large populations – are suffering from labor shortages because of the rapid aging of their populations over the last decade or so. Such a negative demographic trend can be traced to very aggressive […]

Lessons from Singapore’s Demographic Winter

Can We Still Trust Lee Kuan Yew? By 2011, our birthrate stood at yet another historic low of 1.15. Mr Lee’s population tweaking and his obsession in eugenics has arguably brought Singapore to its current dilemma. The PAP never took ownership of the mistake, let alone taking responsibilities. In the current report by Channelnewsasia, he […]
