0In these few years, the numbers of mainland pregnancies coming to 00 to give birth has rapidly increased. According to a newspaper article from “Herald Tribune”, the numbers of births by mainland women in 00 were about 10,100 in 2003 and 20, 577 in mid-200601sup00102sup00.00 00 00The mainland pregnancies coming to Hong Kong to give birth has created many problems towards Hong Kong’s economy in related to the financial burden on Hong Kong government, using up Hong Kong citizen’s medical services and hospital’s bed capacity and having Hong Kong citizens to pay more taxes. 02br

00The first reason for mainland pregnancies to come to Hong Kong is because of the poor surroundings in 010200 and the environmental stimuli that affected their thinking.00 00In 1979, the government of 010200 has held “One Child policy” to control the issue of overpopulation in China01sup00202sup00. To evade this policy, the China citizens comes to Hong Kong to give birth; because, the policy states that there will be a fine severed to the families who give birth to more than one child01sup00302sup00. Thus, if they want to delivery more than one child, the second child they want to give birth to will cost approximately forty-thousand to eighty-thousand dollars RMB01sup00402sup00. Mainlanders tend to think that 00 has a bad educational system. The following quote is a feedback from a male mainlander in distinguishing the difference between studying and having a career in 0100China0200 and 00. 00"It's much easier to leave the country for studies or a career from Hong Kong…… in 010200 the common saying is: 'Finding a doctor is hard. Going to school is harder.'01sup00502sup00 Competition is huge, especially for university places." he said.00 Therefore, this kind of thinking has deepened into mainlander’s mind, making them feel that 00 is a better place for their children’s future. Mainlanders tend to think that Hong Kong has a better medical facility than 010200. To prove this, a mainlander said that “ The medical facility environment in Hong Kong is for sure better than China….it is first come first serve, will not avoid their clients and will not set an unreasonable medical fee…” 01sup00602sup00. Relatively, he thinks 00 has cheaper in medical fees, a better service and a wide variety.00 02br

00The second reason that causes mainland pregnancies to come to 00 is because of the benefits they can obtain. First of all, the inexpensive medical fees in 00 attract many mainlanders to give birth. If the mainlanders chose to give one more birth in China, it might cost them more than RMB$40 000 to RMB$80 000 due the “One child policy”; however, for since there are not limitation to birth control, women giving birth in Hong Kong public hospital only cost HK$20 000 for the whole maternity package01sup00702sup00. Secondly, mainland pregnancies who give birth in 00 can obtain citizen right for their child01sup00802sup00. Thus, their child can obtain a 00 identity card, which they can enjoy the benefits such as easier to go oversea for education and to have financial support in housing opportunity.00 00Thirdly, their child can obtain a qualification in registering for Comprehensive Social Security Assistance (CSSA) scheme; this benefit is only offered to 00 residents. 00 00The CSSA scheme is designed to provide financial assistance to help the low income group to meet their basic needs01sup009.02sup02br

00To conclude, the mainland pregnancies coming to Hong Kong to give birth can have many advantages for them; however, it brings a lot of disadvantage to 00 citizens. The problems that the mainland pregnancies make include: the increasing of financial burden, misallocate of resources and the aging of the population. The solutions to solve this problem is to increase the public hospital medical fee, adjust a Basic law to not give a citizenship to babies that are delivered by mainland pregnancies in Hong Kong and to report all the cases to the 010200 government. 02br
