Core Viewpoint - The recent implementation of the "Childcare Subsidy System Implementation Plan" by the Chinese government aims to provide financial support to families with children under three years old, offering an annual subsidy of 3,600 yuan starting from January 1, 2025, to stimulate birth rates [1][5].

Group 2: Challenges and Considerations - Effective implementation of the subsidy requires not only financial support but also active promotion and a supportive social atmosphere to enhance its impact [6]. - The research highlights that dissatisfaction with local family planning services can diminish the positive effects of the subsidy on birth intentions [6]. - The government is encouraged to focus on policy guidance and public awareness to maximize the effectiveness of the subsidy, suggesting that a well-implemented 3,600 yuan subsidy could yield substantial results if supported by strong promotional efforts [6].
