China has not relaxed family planning: official – Xinhua News Agency

From Xinhua News Agency (link):

The Chinese government will not slacken its family planning law enforcement and will continue to punish those who break it, a senior Chinese family planning official has warned.

Zhang Weiqing, director of the National Population and Family Planning Commission, said in an interview with the “Qiushi” (Seeking Truth From Facts) magazine family planning was having beneficial affects.

The government offers around 1,200 yuan (150 U.S. dollars) a year to rural couples who have only one child or two daughters, as an acknowledgement of their contribution to the birth control drive.
