Japan's Prime Minister Kishi Tian Wenxiong In order to encourage Japanese children and save Japan's population crisis, it has recently proposed a plan to double nursery subsidies.However, due to the "double" step by step for national defense funds, the state treasury wealth was tight, and Kishida had to put on hold on the budget of nursery budgets.
In the early 1970s, Japan was born an average of 2 million babies in Japan each year.By the 1990s, the number of infants began to decrease, and the number of babies born last year was less than 800,000.
Japan is used to encourage children's and childcare allowances to lag behind other advanced countries.Data from the Economic Cooperation and Development Organization (OECD) show that European allowances are generally about 3%of GDP (GDP), while Japan is 1.79%.
It is reported that at the beginning of Kishida, a committee of discussing the social security system was established at the beginning of the year, and one of them was to increase infant allowances.At the budget meeting on February 15, Kishida said, "At present, social allowances related to the family account for 2%of GDP, and we are discussing it over it."
However, a week later, he retracted his rhetoric and pointed out in Congress that "For promoting infant support, I don't think it can be easily doubled.The data".Kishida was criticized by public opinion.
Tokyo News refers to Kishida's emphasis on national defense strategies, which will be regarded as secondary programs.After his "double" defense expenses in Japan, it has expanded from 1%of GDP to 2%from the original restrictions, and the estimation of an estimated increase to 11 trillion yen (about S $ 110 billion) each year.
On the other hand, the newly -built children and housework in Japan are budget 6 trillion yen.
Daily News pointed out that Japan's policy of promoting fertility is to increase parenting allowances, strengthen postpartum care, and expand the childcare vacation system.To implement these policies in all aspects, an annual budget of 3 trillion yen is required.
There are public opinion that Kishida may not be a political failure to shake the infant allowance.Tokyo Women's Kobayashi Kotako's childcare subsidy plan recently refreshing the 5,000 yen allowance of each child per month, which is in a strong contrast with Kishida's swing.Before Xiaochi knew about Tokyo, he was a figure in the Liberal Democratic Party. He also stated that he would be the first female prime minister in Japan.
