XenonChina's fertility rate drops to record low 1.09 in 2022
BuelldozerChina’s demographics are irrecoverably screwed, there’s is quite literally no way back. Their population collapse begun some years ago and the only thing it can do from here is gather speed. Literally every woman in the country between the ages of 16 and 45 could have four children, a totally laughable hypothetical, and it still wouldn’t be enough to stop it.
alternative_factorCouldn't they just allow immigration? I get that most people don't want to move to China anymore but it would probably help. I also know they won't but would immigration work in a vacuum?
I think a big problem would be population size.
China has about the same population as all of Africa. So the question would be where immigrants should come from. I imagine to be helpful china would probably have to become a popular destination for migrants from all of Africa and Asia at a very large scale.
