Rising Divorce Rates in China

There is a general discussion today about the issue of the divorce rate. As can be seen from the chart, great changes have been taking place. Obviously, China has experienced a dramatic increase in the divorce rate in the previous thirty years.

Some reasons are responsible for this. To begin with, legal changes have simplified divorce procedures, and removed barriers to divorce. In addition, the changes in personal economic activities also facilitate the divorce. Both of the couple can live on their own instead of depending on their partners. In other words, they can make the decision easily, when they would like to break up the marriage. Finally, a significant change can be found in social attitude towards the divorced persons. The discrimination to those divorced people has almost been wiped out.

Generally speaking, it is high time that we should place great emphasis on this issue. That is to say, further attention is to be paid to this issue. Obviously, it is necessary that effective actions should be taken to prevent this trend.

Studying Abroad

From the table, we can see that in the past 4 years, the number of people studying abroad has increased considerably. Especially in the recent 2 years, the figure has been more than 130,000.

There are several reasons for the phenomenon. Firstly, with the development of economy, more and more people become better off. And their ability to finance their children’s studying abroad is growing. Secondly, the education quality of foreign developed countries, like the United States, British, and Australia, is thought to be better than that in China. In addition, students today are expected and encouraged to go outside to widen their horizon and to face the real world of globalization. In this way they hope to keep themselves informed of what is going on around the world.

There are, however, also people who think differently. Besides the pains in adapting to a unfamiliar environment, there is also the uncertainty about the reliability and advantages about foreign education, which may depend mainly on the students themselves.

From my point of view, as the changes reflected in the table, it can be predicted that the number of students studying abroad will boost. Its advantages far outweigh its disadvantages, and this trend will be irreversible.
