In 2022, China's population started shrinking for the first time in six decades. The push for marriage and babies comes after China last year saw a record low of 6.83 million marriages registered. Here's how China has tried to get its people to have more babies over the past two years. Wenzhou, a city in southeast China, is offering would-be parents up to 3,000 yuan in subsidies per child. In August, a county in eastern China started offering couples 1,000 yuan in cash if the bride was 25 years old or younger, according to a post on its official WeChat account.

Hong Kong CNN —China’s Trip.com, one of the world’s largest online travel agencies, is introducing new childcare subsidies worth 1 billion yuan ($138 million) to encourage its 32,000 employees to have kids. Trip.com’s announcement follows similar initiatives by smaller Chinese companies and comes as the country faces a demographic crisis. The country is now the world’s second most populous nation, having fallen behind India, according to the United Nations. Giving birth to a first or second child would lead to payments of 30,000 yuan ($4,130) and 60,000 yuan ($8,260) respectively, the reports said. Some 6.83 million couples married in 2022, according to data released by China’s Ministry of Civil Affairs earlier this month.
