Since when did the Vietnamese speak on behalf of Chinese??

If Chinese population continues to grow on a 1-child policy then it obviously is a failure.

Thats because its is effectively a two-child policy in most parts fo China. If your first born was a girl, you can have another child but you have to wait 3-4 years. If your first born was mentally or physically disabled, you can have another child. Also note that ethnic minorites such as Uyghurs and Tibetans can have 3 or 4 children and are not included.

The one-child policy is enforced at the provincial level and not at the national level so implementation varies across China. The Chinese government estimated that only 35.9% of the population today are still affected by the policy and many people simply refuse to abide by it so today. But they were able to bring birthrate down from 5.8 to 1.6/women which is pretty impressive. All across the developing world the birthday is usually double that of China's birthrate today.
