4 months of maternity is already quite long.
how about increasing baby bonus instead? money talks.
How about 10k for a first child, second child 15k, third child
at 20k. then throw in freebies like if free education, uniform and
textbooks from kindergarden to secondary schools, I am sure lots of
couple will consider giving birth. also throw in subsidised gynae
rates.
Give one million dollars per baby, you will see a record number
of babies born next year.
Money talks.
Not maternity leave.
