- W4300697942 abstract "This description of Hong Kong's population situation presented to the Committee on Population of the UN Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific points out that Hong Kong has 1 of the highest population densities in the world, with 5.4 million persons in slightly over 1000 sq km. Although there is no officially stated population policy, the government supports the work of the Hong Kong Family Planning Association, a nongovernmental organization, through allocation of financial and other resources. In the 1960s and early 1970s, contraceptive services were available in clinic sessions operated by the Association in government clinics, but beginning in 1977, family planning became part of the Family Health Service Programme of the government medical and health services. The crude birth rate has declined from about 35/1000 in the early 1960s to 14.4 in 1984 despite an increasing number and proportion of reproductive aged women. Fertility in Hong Kong had already reached replacement level by 1980, and the net reproduction rate declined to .7 by 1984. The government has never set a family size norm, although the Family Planning Association promoted 2-child families in the past. The crude death rate has hovered around 4.8-5.0/1000 since the nation gained control over parasitic and infectious diseases in the late 1950s and early 1960s. In 1983, life expectancy at birth was about 73 for males and 78 for females. Migration has been controlled in recent years, allowing the population growth rate to decline from about 6.1% in 1979 to 1.0% in 1984. Hong Kong is now facing problems of population aging; the population aged 65 and over increased from only 2.8% of the total in 1961 to 7.4% in 1984. Efforts are continually underway to redistribute the overconcentrated urban population to the rural areas. New towns with full infrastructure and employment opportunities have been developed in the past 2 decades, and about .9 million people have been resettled in 6 major new towns in the New Territories." @default.
