Gender Imbalance

If the ratio of the male population to the female population remains at such an imbalance rate, then the population of Asia will decrease, but before that could happen, the trend is that less babies are born and the population of a certain country will decrease, not many jobs are supplied to meet the demand of the great number of females.

If the ratio of the male population to the female population remains at such an imbalance rate, then the population of Asia will decrease. As the number of females increases, the number of marriages will decrease, resulting in lower birth rates in the certain country. Research has shown that the number of marriages in Asia has decreased by at least 2% from 2007 to 2009. 2% is huge, even for Singapore, whereby fertility rate is still below replacement rate of required 2.1 children per couple. If this trend continues, such countries like SIngapore would be badly hit as it can affect both the workforce and defensive force in the future.

If the ratio of the male population to the female population remains at such an imbalance rate, the amount of jobs available will not be enough for the great number of women. According to traditions, "Women are regarded as smarter beings than men, while men are regarded as the heavy work doers". The US Census Bureau notes that the 74 million people added to the world's population in 2002 were fewer than the high of 87 million people added in 1989–1990. The annual growth rate was 1.2 percent, down from the high of 2.2 percent in 1963-64. Which is the result of the increasing number of single men and women in the world. By 2002 the average was 2.6, and by 2009, 2.5. This is marginally above the global replacement fertility of 2.33. This fall has been accompanied by a decline in the world's population growth rate and in the actual annual population increase. In singapore, the jobs available for the women would not be enough as they require more tiertary level jobs, but Singapore's workforce is diversified and suitable for anyone of any level of education.

In conclusion if the ratio of the male population to the female population remains at such an imbalance rate, then the population of Asia will decrease and there will be lacking of females to occupy relevant jobs and lastly.
