For decades, there was concern with overpopulation in China. Now the demographics are telling a different story: the population is not growing at a replacement rate and there will be an increasingly older population with fewer young workers to support them. I wonder what implications this is going to have for the world economy and China's military ambitions.

Maybe China should augment its population by taking in some refugees from Somalia, Libya, and Yemen.

You beat me to it. If the economy is for the people then fewer people isn't an insurmountable problem. If the people are there to serve the economy then massive immigration is the elites answer.

^^^Because of the same demographic issue, Japan is re-thinking their famously strict immigration policy.

The last I read was Japan is being encouraged to rethink their strict immigration policy and they aren’t all that interested.
Japan and China have observed the west’s multicultural flusterlcuck and haven’t shown much interest in following our lead.
They will leave the cultural demolition and accelerated demographic suicide to us.

Gee, that almost makes it sound like they're smarter than us.
And almost like xenophobia is a survival trait.
Nahhhhh. Imposserous.

I don't really feel all that bad for them. This is what happens when you use government to try to control the population, and in this case, I mean that literally.
So in the end, that whole one child policy went disastrously wrong on so many levels. Let me find my shocked face.

Japan's leadership in industrial robotics is at least partly due to its need to overcome a worsening shortage of working age citizens. Also, I'm pretty sure I have seen articles saying they want to develop specialized robots to help with eldercare.

They should definitely do this.
