上海油压工作室　　Beijing greets 1.3 billionth mainland baby

上海油压工作室　　今天凌晨零时02分，随着一声男婴的啼哭，中国内地第13亿名小公民在北京市妇产医院诞生。男婴重3660克，身长52厘米，取名张亦驰。

　　The 1.3 billionth Chinese person was greeted Thursday morning in Beijing.

上海油压工作室　　Just two minutes after midnight, a boy of 3.66 kilograms drew his first breath and uttered his first cries at the Beijing Hospital of Gynaecology and Obstetrics.

上海油压工作室　　Watched closely by his overjoyed father Zhang Tong and tired mother Lan Hui, the baby was sleepy but healthy.

上海油压工作室　　"At the moment, I feel that I am the happiest person in the world. I believe that my lucky boy will have a smooth life," said proud father.

　　It has been 10 years since the 1.2 billionth baby was born in China - a full decade for another 100 million people to be born in this country and a sign that population growth has slowed down.

　　The family planning policy of the past 30 years has effectively controlled the over-rapid increase of China"s population.

上海油压工作室　　China has stayed on the list of countries with low fertility rates for the past decade.

　　In fact the change in pace is worrying family planners for the future, with an increasing ageing population.

　　According to the 2000 national census , the percentage of people aged 65 and older has already reached 6.96 per cent, and this is estimated at increasing to 11.8 per cent by 2020.

上海油压工作室　　Wang Guoqiang, deputy director of the National Population and Family Planning Commission of China, said: "1.3 billion is a vast number. It will put great pressure on the economy, society, resources and the environment."
