Taiwan needs more babes!

Apparently not enough Taiwanese are having kids.

"Taiwan's birth rate plunged to a record low last year and Ma today is part of a three-year government campaign to encourage bigger families, hoping to ward off welfare strains on a rapidly graying population."
Imagine the hospital waits in the future! J-hole will have to give up his hypochondria hobby.
In a show of government concern, officials who give speeches at wedding ceremonies have taken to telling newly weds that being productive shows their patriotism.
I don't remember Rye Guy or Kevlar getting this speech - or did the Judge already know that it wasn't necessary! Taiwan Wan Sui! It's the new pick up line.
In the northern city of Hsinchu -- Taiwan's Silicon Valley -- the local government has handed out subsidies of up to T$100,000 ($3,200) to encourage births.
Kevlar, just think how many bowls of noodles that could buy! Better move before summer.
