    Question there are too few of them?

    Jiang said he knows government social workers are under great pressure because there are too few of them.

    He promised to increase the number, saying that the plan has already been approved by the Executive Yuan.




    The above sentences were quoted from our local newspaper (FOCUS TAIWAN).


    Is there any grammar issue of " there are too few of them " ?

    Thank you.

    It's perfectly correct, there are too few government social workers.
