China’s Census “Difficult” Experts Issue Report: Births Down 10%-30% in Many Places
China’s seventh census report has not yet been released on a specific schedule, and there is speculation that the delay is due to a significant drop in population numbers, causing a crisis for those in power.
The Financial Times reported on April 27, citing unnamed sources, that China’s seventh census report was completed in December last year and was scheduled to be released in early April this year, but the findings have not been made public. And China’s population exceeded 1.4 billion for the first time in 2019.
According to the report, population data is very sensitive and requires agreement among government departments on the data and its implications before it can be released.
As the census results were “difficult” to produce, Ren Zeping, a leading Chinese economist, released the “China Population Report”, which said that the number of births across China had decreased by 10-30 percent.
According to Ren Zeping’s team, the current fertility situation in China is a rapid decline in the number of women of prime reproductive age, a sharp decline in fertility rates and a significant reduction in fertility intentions.
The future total fertility rate will decline from 1.5 in 2019 to around 1.0-1.2. With an estimated total fertility rate of 1.0, the total population will be 1.21 and 520 million by 2050 and 2100, respectively, and the proportion of elderly people will be 31.2% and 53.4%, respectively. Even if the total fertility rate of 1.4 is slightly optimistic, the total population will be 1.27 billion and 730 million in 2050 and 2100 respectively, with the proportion of elderly people being 29.6% and 40.7% respectively.

Radio Free Asia tweeted a photo of the misspelled slogan on April 29, with a text saying that, in line with the centennial of the Party, signs were put up on the streets around the country calling for in-depth study of the spirit of Xi Jinping’s speech during his visit to Guizhou, but the phrase “loyalty and clean responsibility” was written as “loyalty and clean worry “. The tweet also semi-flirtatiously questioned: “How worried are the local officials?”
Many netizens mocked: “horse’s ass to the face,” “hahaha, the great crime of executing nine clans,” “this comrade who speaks the truth will be killed by the organization” “It’s all the fault of auto-association.” “If someone else’s quotes, the person doing the banner may slightly doubt whether it’s a mistake. But this quotation comes from General Xi, everyone will feel no problem, after all, in the official speech also ‘pepper’ it.”
The Taiwanese media also commented that the local CCP officials’ “Chinese language attainment is not a problem?”

Bao felt that the opportunity to “save the hero” had arrived, and transferred 15,750 yuan to the so-called logistics company in two installments.
But the logistics company received the money, but told A Bao that one of the 6750 yuan transfer error, need to remittance to another account, as long as the remittance will be able to quickly get back the luggage, and promised to return the previous 6750 yuan.

So he did not hesitate to transfer 900 yuan to the other side of the account, and then contact the “network police”, found that he could not contact, he realized that he had been cheated again.
Unwillingly, he again found a Beijing “net police” through a web search.
This Beijing “net police” fraudulent tactics and the previous fraudster the same, but Po still fell for it. After transferring the so-called 4993 yuan of “verification money”, he was blacked out again. And this is the third time he has been fooled.
After several sleepless nights, Po decided to change his mind and find a lawyer to help him defend his rights. However, he chose to search the Internet, and in the end, he was scammed by the so-called lawyer for a service fee of 1998 yuan.
