Each country needs to be formed with the internationally recognized land area and the population as main factors for the country characteristics. It is because the land area of the country becomes the mother home for the people.
The rapid growth of population in a country or a region can be identified as the population explosion. On the other hand, some countries may face the decline of population unexpectedly for various reasons.
As the increasing number of populations may contribute much towards the economic development of some countries, it is dubbed as the rewards of population. However, the decline of the population may be a hindrance to the productivity of the country, harming the rate of its economic growth.
Consequently, such a kind of situation may cause the raising of dependents as well as the crisis for looking after the older persons. As such, it is necessary to adopt the appropriate population policies avoiding the two edges such as population explosion and population decline for enabling the people to enjoy the fruits of human development.
Some countries across the world face deep poverty situations not to escape from the bad vicious circle with the increasing number of populations more than the workable age people. In this regard, the appropriate population policy may support the gradual reform process in these countries to solve the crises of a bad vicious circle in a patient manner.
As part of implementing the population policy, all the citizens of Myanmar need to serve the inborn duty for the prevention of trafficking in persons, especially forced marriage to those from other countries. Currently, some women from poor families in Myanmar similar to those from neighbouring Laos, Cambodia and Vietnam become the victims of forced marriage to foreigners.
According to the data of the Anti-Human Trafficking Police Force of Myanmar, suspects from 239 cases of human trafficking were arrested in regions and states in 2019. Of them, some Myanmar women victims fell under the human traffickers in 196 cases to China.
As such, Myanmar needs to sustain the proper increasing rate of population in order to support the economic development of the nation while preventing the acts of trafficking in persons which badly undermine enhancement of the socio-economy of the people and peaceful and prosperous nature of the society.
