An "exchange" of population International marriage has become a way for Taiwan men to handle the pressure of continuing the next generation. The Census Bureau announced at the end of July this year that in 2002 a quarter of all Taiwan grooms married "foreign brides," (including mainland Chinese) for a total figure of 44,843 women.
一場人口的「交換」跨國婚姻成了台灣男性解決延續香火壓力的途徑，行政院主計處在今年七月底公布，去年結婚的台灣男性，有四分之一娶的是「外籍新娘」（包括大陸），人數達四萬四千八百四十三人。
