What an amazing document! Without this kind of “Birth Quota”, you couldn’t have children in #China. I remember that I also had to apply for such a “quota” before I could have a child in the 1990s. Without such a document, I couldn’t even go to the hospital for pregnancy and prenatal checkups, nor could I go to the hospital to give birth to my child.
Even if I managed to give birth to my child secretly somewhere, he/she would always be a “none person” as he/she couldn’t get a household registration”. He/she would not be able to go to school or be able to enjoy any normal treatment…
Well, this is the translation of this amazing “historical document”:
“1980 Family Planning Notification Letter
