China\u2019s demographic transition owing particularly to its stricter birth policies has grappled it with the problem of ageing population and dwindling work-force.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A report released by the People\u2019s Bank of China (PBOC), China\u2019s central bank, said that China should immediately liberalise its birth policies to tackle the problems of an ageing population and plan to compete economically with a demographically young India and an immigration-friendly US.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In a detailed section on India, the report said the gap between the two countries is narrowing. As two big countries in Asia, China\u2019s economic growth has been faster than India\u2019s for a long time but in recent years, China\u2019s demographic dividend fading, India\u2019s economic growth has tended to approach China\u2019s, the report said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It added that China\u2019s ageing population and the declining birth rate will become more serious in 10 years while India\u2019s demographic structure will be further optimised.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The report pointed out that India\u2019s labour force will exceed China\u2019s by hundreds of millions in the years ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
By 2050, this advantage will continue to grow. Not only will India have a much narrower elderly population at the top and a much wider workforce in the middle, but it will also have a wider workforce at the bottom, indicating a more abundant workforce and greater growth potential beyond 2050.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
