Here are the hottest topics on Twitter about China over the past 24 hours:
# China unveils 2-child policy
From Jan. 1, 2016, China will allow two children for every couple, CNN reported.
Chinese lawmakers passed the new legislation Sunday during a session of the National People's Congress Standing Committee on Sunday, officially ending the decades-long one-child policy.
The Straits Times said the new policy aimed to cope with an aging population and shrinking workforce in the world's most populous country.
# China passes first anti-terror law
China's top legislature on Sunday approved the country's first counter-terrorism law to battle terrorism at home and overseas, The South China Morning Post reported.
The adopted legislation significantly strengthens the exchange of information between the Chinese authorities and security services. China will also tighten cybersecurity measures, as well as transport checks and border controls, according to Sputnik.
# China Telecom chairman under probe
Chang Xiaobing, the chairman of China Telecom, one of the country's largest state-owned mobile operators, is being investigated by the anti-corruption watchdog, BBC reported.
Chang is the latest in a series of high-profile executives to become ensnared in Beijing's crackdown on corruption.
