- Increasing Numbers of China’s Elderly May Slow Economic Growth - Editor, 11 August 2008
Seen by many as a result of the country’s twenty-eight year enforced family planning policy, China’s population is aging faster than that of any other country and will undoubtedly have a negative effect on economic growth. Director of aging research at the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington, Richard Jackson, revealed that research results indicate that by the year 2020, China’s population will include around 400 million people aged 60 years and older, with around 100 million being older than 80. Moreover, by the year 2050, at least a third of China’s 1.4 billion inhabitants will be 60 and over.
