Introduced in 1979 to decrease Chinas booming population. One child per family unless the two parents were only children. Impacts most urban areas. The one child policy will lead children to be obese and spoiled. In rural areas family's can have up to 2 children. If familys have an only child they will be given a card to pay for medicine, health, and education. But they have to pay for clothing and food . Fu Jin Tao is overzealous about the policy.

Chinese New Year occurs in February and lasts 15 days. Here are some class zodiac signs.
Rabbit: Hares fall under a most fortunate sign! Their sign is the emblem of long life and they possess the powers of the moon. Hares are very sensitive to beauty. They are gracious and soft spoken. Hares are the diplomats and the peace-makers. Hares are reserved and very artistic. They are thorough and good scholars. When Hares are moody, which is often, they will appear totally indifferent to the world.(1999) Tiger: One of the most dynamic signs in the Chinese zodiac, Tigers are by turns fascinating, commanding, and exasperating. They are patient but short-tempered, calm but rebellious, petty but noble, fearsome but affectionate, free spirits but fiercely territorial. With their many & various personality traits, Tigers are also - not surprisingly - noted for a marked reluctance to make up their minds.
