The population of Changhua County has officially dropped below the 1.2 million mark. Although it is still the largest county in the country, it is faced with the problem of being unable to retain its population. Candidates for county magistrate Chen Suyue, Wei Pingzheng, and Qiu Jianfu also expressed their views on women and children, hoping that couples would be willing to have children so that children can grow up and go to school with peace of mind!

Democratic Progressive Party candidate Chen Suyue launched the policy of "Parenting 321, Lohas YOUNG Mommy" to give families a sense of comfort from the beginning of welcoming a new baby. She will initiate policies such as a cash subsidy of 20,000 yuan per child for confinement, three psychological consultations from pregnancy to postpartum, and an annual maintenance subsidy of 12,000 yuan for children aged one to three.

Chen Suyue's team also pointed out that the most common outflow of people from Changhua is to move to the neighboring city of Taichung, especially if they want to study in a private school nearby. Therefore, Chen Suyue also proposed a bilingual school policy, that is, public elementary and middle schools should be consolidated into bilingual schools, so that parents no longer have to move to Taichung City to attend private schools, so as to keep parents and children.

Kuomintang candidate Wei Pingzheng's maternal and child policy views include an increase in maternity subsidy for the first child, totaling 150,000 yuan, artificial reproduction subsidy of up to 100,000 yuan, egg freezing subsidy of up to 30,000 yuan, postpartum confinement subsidy of 20,000 yuan, and free health insurance premiums for children under 6 years old.

The political views of Qiu Jianfu, an independent candidate, propose that the central maternity subsidy is 100,000 yuan, and Changhua will increase it by 100,000 yuan; the child cute card will be extended to 6 years old, and the points will be increased to 12,000 points; and friendly childcare will be increased by 1,000 yuan per month.
