Interesting. Do you have a good source for this? Googling it is just the same (Chinese source) line repeated over and over:

> National Health and Family Planning Commission spokesman Mao Qunan said the agency’s work had reduced the number of births in China over the years by “400 million”.

Nothing much about the effect of the removal of the policy either.

The reduce of population is not the effect of the policy, but the effect of economic growth. It would have happened without the policy. On the other hand, the policy created tons of horrible human rights violations, such as forced abortion against the mother’s will and gave her the dead body of her child. http://funtobebad.blogspot.com/2012/06/china-forces-seven-mo...
