China is now seriously troubled by another problem..!?

The Dragon Country is in trouble. china, which is ranked second in the world, is now seriously troubled by another problem. The country has already made various efforts to get out of that problem. However, the results are not visible. Once upon a time, china continued to be in the top place in terms of population in the world. But now the same country is struggling with population growth. The situation is deteriorating day by day due to a lack of population growth. The decline in China's population for the third consecutive year has caused further concern. By the end of 2024, china had a population of 1.408 billion. Compared to 2023, the population has decreased by 1.390 million. However.. the Chinese government officially released these statistics on Friday. Economic experts say that this is a negative factor for china as the population is decreasing every year.
They say that the elderly population in china is already increasing, the number of people who are able to do work is decreasing, and the number of young people is completely decreasing. As a result, china has also joined the list of countries like Japan, South Korea, Hong Kong, and Eastern europe whose population is decreasing. In china, there are only 100 women for every 104 men. Although these figures have been officially released by the Chinese government, many say that these figures are far from reality. Experts believe that the difference between the male and female population is still quite large. Statistics say that one-fifth or 22 percent of China's population is above the age of 60. The figures show that there are mainly 313 million elderly people. Estimates reveal that by 2035, the number of people reaching this age limit will exceed 30 percent of the population. The report clarified that nearly one crore people migrated from rural areas of china to towns and cities in 2024 compared to 2023.
The cost of living of people in china has increased significantly. Due to this, many young people are not interested in getting married early. It seems that even those who are married are not daring to have children due to the lack of proper income sources. That is why estimates reveal that the average life expectancy of the elderly in china has increased significantly. At the same time, the number of births has decreased significantly. As a result, that impact has fallen on the country's population decline. The most crucial role in driving a country's economic power forward is played by working young people. china has become the strongest economic power in the world on the back of its population. Now, population decline has become a curse for such a country. In the past, it imposed a rule to have only one child to control population growth. But.. in the current situation, it has lifted that rule. The country has focused on population growth in particular for the past four years. It has also announced incentives for couples to have more children. On the other hand, the Chinese government said that the Chinese economy achieved a growth rate of 5.4 percent in the October-December quarter of last year. This was possible due to stimulus packages given to the country's companies and strong exports. There were huge exports during this three-month period amid concerns that donald trump will increase taxes on Chinese goods once he takes office as US president on january 20.
