I feel that Chinese are very practical people. They would rather
ensure their offsprings are able to lead a life where they need not
worry about everything. With the rising costs, would they want to
subject their children to the harsh realities? This is what I as a
Chinese feel la. 
And my Malay friend once told me, in their holy book, they do
not encourage the use of contraception and also discourage
abortion, that might be where the larger family come
about.
Indian, I don't know. So far all the Indian family I know are
half half. Some are single, some no children, some got 2 or 3 kids.
Hard to say.
Basically, I think as responsible human, if 2 get married, they
should at least give birth to 2 children so that at least can
sustain our human domination in this world, even ants are
protecting all their might to perserve their eggs and we here are
reluctant to give birth, more so if you are married, i heard that
after married many years with no children, the couple relation
start to strain, and also hor, childrens also provide happiness to
the family, one of my workers said, work hard is ok, when go back,
see childrens very happy. For this, no amount of money can buy
