Having made many trips to the mainland in recent years, one thing that deeply impresses me is this: Planned population growth has already replaced all those other movements and is now virtually the only one that has any substantive meaning, and has not just become a ritual slogan. (Perhaps the same thing can be said only about the new wave of economic reform since Deng Xiaoping's "southern tour.")
近幾年多次進中國大陸行走，感受深刻的一件事是：計畫生育早已取代過去的那些一個接一個的運動，幾乎成為唯一尚具實質意義，而非流於口號或形式的運動（另一個則可能要算是鄧小平南巡之後的新經改風潮）。
