For the current decade and the next one, the age structure of the population shall be very favorible for our economy. The share of children in the total population will decrease while the older people share will remain almost unchanged. From viewpoint of the age structrure of the population, the population which is fewer, yet skillful, educated and healthy is better than the population with greater number but unqualified, uneducated and with poor health. To encourage the fertility increase, it’s more important to invest on improvement of the health state of the population and decreasing the mortality and poverty, than spending resources. In other words, focusing on the quality instead of the number of the population, Government shall make efforts to invest sufficiently to support the efficient employment of the workforce, taking into account the current and future tendency of the workforce group. Such policy could be the key for our country’s future development.
