Korea’s Planned Parenthood: “Have more kids!!”

July 3rd, 2009

The head of the Korean affiliate of the International Planned Parenthood Federation recently pleaded with his countrymen and women to have more children. Choi Seon-jeong, president of the Planned Population Federation of Korea, warned in the JoongAng Daily that his government must combat a “national crisis of super-low fertility”, or Korea will disappear. MercatorNet asked him to explain how this has happened and how he proposes to increase birth rates. The interview is here; http://www.mercatornet.com/articles/view/koreas_population_crisis/

This interested me because of it’s imminence of demographic catastrophe. Looking at the EU, they’re about to round the same corner. Why should we believe we’re exempt? Our entire culture preaches the joys & normalcy of sex without consequences, pushing contraception and abortion as perfectly acceptable. We may have a way to go to get there, but if things don’t change then get there we will.
