China is far from point to be panic about its population
By Global Times, Jan 18, 2023
''China's status as one of the most populous countries in the world will not change. A slight decline in population will not lead to stagnation of China's GDP growth and it will not become a stumbling block to surpass the US economy. If China's development slows down, population decline will not be the top reason.
Chinese scholars and ordinary people have long known that this was coming. Yuan Xin, a professor from the Institute of Population and Development at Nankai University's School of Economics, told the Global Times that China's national population is currently hovering around the zero-growth stage.
Some young people decided to delay pregnancy due to the pandemic. It is thus possible to see a population growth rebound in two or three years to come, said Yuan.
According to UN's World Population Prospects 2022, China's population will still remain larger than 1.3 billion by 2050. That is by no means a small population size. Yuan noted that in the next 30 years, China's population decrease will be mild, and China will still be a huge market. With rising incomes and consumption power, its enormous potential will remain inestimable.''
