Binh Dinh People’s Committee on July 7 approved a proposal for reducing the gender imbalance implemented in Binh Dinh from now to late 2010.
The proposal is expected to provide 70 percent of the province’s population with the basic knowledge of bad effects of the gender imbalance and prenatal gender selection, violating the State’s population policy.
It will also target 80-90 percent of officials and administrative staff and those who provide ultrasound and abortion services for people.
At present, the province’s gender balance is of 117 boys to every 100 girls.
