Future Trends

Although the Chinese population has been soaring for decades overburdening China's biggest cities, the trend is expected to reverse in the coming years. , the country's population will be at its peak of 1.44 billion in 2019 and then experience a decline that will return the population to the mid-1990s level by 2065. The strict family planning strategies of "One-child" and "Two-child" introduced by the Chinese government in 1980 and 2016 respectively are primarily held responsible for this forecasted trend. Although the two-child policy that replaced the one-child one now stands to be scrapped, the country's growing middle class is today less ready to have more children even if they do not have to adhere to any compulsory family planning rules. Thus, the aging population of China is expected to usher in a host of challenges that might act as a barrier to the future growth of the country.
