At least 60 million "missing" girls in Asia

Remember, these two countries together make up almost half of the world population.

This is good to hear. From the article;

Since the 1970s, India’s government has promoted a two-child family as "ideal." While no formal laws exist, the general fertility decline in the country has led to smaller families, with couples still preferring to have at least one son. But the government has done more than just suggest this number.

"In India it has been done state by state, village by village," Mosher said. "There have sterilization campaigns and there is enormous pressure. Villages that won’t comply have been denied fertilizer, access to irrigation water, etc."

India needs to gain control of its population growth IMO.
