Six coutries with lowest fertility rate in the world.

226 Japan 1.41 1.20
227 Republic of China (Taiwan) 1.76 1.15
228 Singapore 1.16 1.10
229 Hong Kong (PRC) 1.27 1.04
230 Macau (PRC) 1.30 0.91
Actually the fertility rate of PRC given in wikipedia (1.54) is wrong!
the actual fertility rate according to 2000 national census is 1.22! the fertility rate of Shanghai is
0.7 and a district in heilongjiang province has the lowest birth rate in world -
0.4!
the first national census in 1950s says Han chinese accounted for 98% of the whole population, in 2000, it dropped to 92%. and 4 out every 10 new-born babies are non-han people.
By 2100, India, USA, Brazil, Indonesia, Pakistan will have more population than China. At that time,
Eastern civilization will wither with no doubt.
