新加坡人口政策的转型与发展评估
龚达伟
摘要(Abstract):
新加坡的人口政策演变一直与本国的地缘环境、移民情况以及历史发展息息相关。在过去30年间,新加坡经历的最为深刻的社会转变之一就是从一个年轻的、快速成长的高生育率人口国家过渡成为一个生育率长期低下且国内人口增长较低的快速老龄化国家。如何应对已经来临的老龄社会是新加坡政府必须面对的课题。随着新移民的持续涌入,新加坡的人口政策进行了适时的调整,在生育问题方面,政府对国民采取了积极鼓励的政策,以应对日渐老龄化的社会所带来的人口压力。但是政府的政策即使出发点是好的,也往往会引起民意反弹,比如政府针对2030年人口数量及新加坡未来发展所推出的人口白皮书,就在新加坡民众中反响较大。
