foreign media said that in the two child policy officially implemented on New Year's day, the prohibition of surrogacy provisions was deleted, causing great controversy.
the 29 day of China Daily, quoted by Korea daily on December 30th, Zhang Chunsheng, director of the legal department of China's National Health Planning Commission, said: "in the process of deliberation, a heated discussion has been carried out." "Some people say that if a total ban on surrogacy is made, some wealthy people may be born abroad instead of surrogacy." Sun Xiaomei, deputy to the National People's Congress, said: "surrogacy is related to the reproductive rights of citizens." A professor at Xichang College said in the journal Guangming Daily: "at present, the number of infertile couples in China is increasing. This measure is out of consideration." CNN reported in August this year: "Chinese couples seeking surrogacy in the United States are increasing." "Some companies even 40% customers are Chinese." The cost is $130 thousand to $150 thousand.

China's 35 year old one-child policy has officially ended and there have been many advertisements about surrogacy. A surrogacy agency played a "1 million yuan" advertisement to attract rural women. There are young women asking for hundreds of thousands of yuan under the condition of "cohabitation". China's Ministry of Health issued a "ministry order" prohibiting surrogacy in 2001, but it was pointed out that it had no effect.
