Seoul (AFP)
- A South Korean lawmaker provoked outrage Monday when he berated a female
economics professor nominated as the country's antitrust chief for not
"fulfilling her duty to the nation" by having a child.
Despite its
economic advances, South Korean society remains highly patriarchal and is facing
a demographic crisis with women increasingly reluctant to have babies for
reasons ranging from the expense of child-rearing to career setbacks.
The
government has spent billions of dollars since 2005 to try to boost the birth
rate -- one of the world's lowest -- by providing child subsidies and expanding
daycare services, without success.
Jeong
Kab-yoon, a five-time lawmaker from the conservative opposition Liberty Korea
Party, sparked an outcry when he scolded Joh Sung-wook, an unmarried academic
who is in her mid-50s, for not having children.
"I'm
aware that you are still single and the biggest problem in South Korea is that
(women) are not giving birth," Jeong said at Joh's confirmation hearing to
head the Fair Trade Commission, according to Yonhap news agency.
"You
have a great resume but please fulfil your duties to the nation," Jeong
added.
Joh
appeared taken aback but did not react to his remark.
Social
media users, though, were furious.
"This
is an outright sexual assault and a violation of women's rights," one
wrote.
Another
asked: "Would a male nominee have faced this question?"
The
country's total fertility rate -- the number of children a woman is expected to
have in her lifetime -- dropped to 0.98 in 2018, far short of the 2.1 needed to
maintain population stability.
The answer is simple, but requires a change in thinking. The answer is a civilization on the planet who understands a new survival scenario. Instead of a basic population who has been told to have a lot of children to enhance the race [old survival], they begin to understand the logic of a new scenario. The Akashic wisdom of the ages will start to creep in with a basic survival scenario shift. Not every single woman will look at herself and say, "The clock is ticking," but instead can say, "I have been a mother 14 times in a row. I'm going to sit this one out." It's a woman who understands that there is no loss or guilt in this, and actually feels that the new survival attribute is to keep the family small or not at all! Also, as we have said before, even those who are currently ignorant of population control will figure out what is causing babies to be born [Kryon joke].
Part of the new Africa will be education and healing, and eventually a zero population growth, just like some of the first-world nations currently have. Those who are currently tied to a spiritual doctrine will actually have that doctrine changed (watch for it) regarding Human birth. Then they will be able to make free choice that is appropriate even within the establishment of organized religion. You see, things are going to change where common sense will say, "Perhaps it would help the planet if I didn't have children or perhaps just one child." Then the obvious, "Perhaps I can exist economically better and be wiser with just one. It will help the one!" Watch for these changes. For those of you who are steeped in the tradition of the doctrines and would say that sounds outrageously impossible, I give you the new coming pope [Kryon smile]. For those of you who feel that uncontrolled procreation is inevitable, I encourage you to see statistics you haven't seen or didn't care to look at yet about what first-world countries have already accomplished on their own, without any mandates. It's already happening. That was number three.….”

“… 3 - Longer Life is Going to Happen, But…
Here is one that is a review. We keep bringing it up because Humans don't believe it. If you're going to start living longer, there are those who are frightened that there will be overpopulation. You've seen the way it is so far, and the geometric progression of mathematics is absolute and you cannot change it. So if you look at the population of the earth and how much it has shifted in the last two decades, it's frightening to you. What would change that progression?
