The Dhaka Times Desk Many may be surprised by the news that having children will bring money. But the fact is true. If pregnant, the couple will get one and a half lakh taka! South Korea announced.
South Korea has announced financial incentives to encourage couples to have children as the death rate outstrips the birth rate for the first time.
Last year, 2 lakh 75 thousand 800 children were born in the country, which is 10 percent less than the birth rate of 2019. But about 3 lakh seven thousand 64 people died.
After these figures came to light, the country's Ministry of Home Affairs was requested to bring fundamental changes in the national policy. The gradual decline in population has put tremendous pressure on the country. The country has experienced a labor crisis due to a declining youth population, which has impacted the country's economy.
Last month, South Korean President Moon Jae also introduced new policies to increase the birth rate and encourage all families to have children.
It is reported that under the scheme, from 2022, every child in pregnancy will be given a bonus of 20 million Korean cash (won) i.e. 156,000 taka as antenatal expenses. 300,000 will be given every month up to one month after the birth of the child. The amount will increase to 500,000 won per month from 2025 to encourage couples.
In South Korea, women face many challenges in balancing work and other life demands. Which is believed to be responsible for this happening.
Hun Yoo Kim is a South Korean woman. He is the eldest of four siblings. Although she dreams of a big family of her own, her family's non-cooperation forces her to rethink her plans for children.
He also recently joined a new job. So she is quite worried about maternity leave. He says that everyone tells me that it is safer to build a career first.
Rising residential land prices are seen as another important factor behind this situation. Hun Yoo Kim said newlyweds are reluctant to have children as land prices rise rapidly. After having more children you will need a house of your own but that is impossible or just a dream in Korea.
He said that the steps taken by the government to encourage child birth are not effective. He also said it would make the process of raising children more expensive. Government paying extra to couples is not the only solution to this problem. Source: BBC
