Taiwan faces a low birthrate crisis, ranking among the lowest in the world. However, data related to induced abortions presents another noteworthy phenomenon. The program's data shows that Taiwan's ratio of induced abortions to live births is higher than that of Japan, South Korea, Germany, the United Kingdom, and the United States. With both low birth rates and induced abortion problems existing simultaneously, is there a long-overlooked aspect behind Taiwan's low birthrate?

This episode of "Geopolitical Code - WenXun War Room" features lawyer Tong WenXun examining Taiwan's induced abortion and birth population data, comparing them with those of Japan, South Korea, Germany, the United Kingdom, and the United States to explore Taiwan's low birthrate problem. As the birth rate continues to decline, beyond asking "why aren't people having children," should we also delve deeper into why some women ultimately choose abortion after becoming pregnant?

The program further discusses the potential economic pressures, family relationships, partner issues, and childcare burdens behind abortion. When a woman faces an unplanned pregnancy, besides "giving birth" and "terminating the pregnancy," does the existing system provide sufficient information, counseling, and support to allow her to make a choice with full autonomy?

Faced with a declining birth rate, policies cannot rely solely on subsidies and "encouraging births," but should establish a more comprehensive support system for pregnant women and their families. From companionship and counseling during pregnancy to foster care, guardianship, and adoption systems after childbirth, we can further consider how to improve these systems so that families temporarily unable to raise children still have other institutionally protected options.

As Taiwan's birth rate continues to plummet, abortion-related data has sparked renewed discussion. Is the real problem with the declining birth rate that "people willing to have children" are a lack of social support systems that allow women and families to make choices with peace of mind and provide support during difficult times?
