香港的出生率已遠遠低於新加坡了(新加坡在1.3時已響警號, 搞很多鼓勵生育的政策, 香港現在是0.8), 正如chattergarden alih的評論, 早知今日, 何必當初:
"There was concern before the 1997 handover a wave of mainlanders would flood Hong Kong, so very stringent right of abode and immigration laws were put into place. How ironic now that Hong Kong now desperately needs those folks to maintain its population."
