  • My assumption (!) is that either a) Didn’t have the resources to properly enforce it everywhere efficiently. (particularly in rural area), don’t get me wrong, they did enforce it in the areas they could, or b) The death rate was also decreasing and life expectancy was improving due to economic growth, better availability of modern medicine, etc. so keeping the birth rate stable would still mean the population would grow.

    Interesting tidbit, after 2015, the One Child Policy was replaced by the Two Child Policy, and in 2021, the Three Child Policy. Shortly after, the restriction was essentially gone and now aforementioned efforts to increase the birth rate are being made.
