A social problem in our country
Good afternoon Ladies and Gentlemen. Today I want to talk about a social problem in our country. As we can know China has the largest population in the world, caused by the large population base, there is a high rate of population increasing. Every year we still have about 15 million babies are born. However, we still have a lot of people get into old age every years, now there are one thousand four hundred aged people.
This leads to a big problem---the aging society: As we all know , more old people mean more labour force reduced. It will influence the social productivity and decline in economic growth rate .The demand of social services and health care products will be increasing. It adds to the burden of social welfare and safeguards .This situation would lead to reducing the capacity of innovation and economic vitality of the country.
As a result, what we can do to deal with this problem? I think first we must aware this problem, then make it as a long-term development of society. Second we should clearly the direction of old-age work to implement into the development plans in defferent palces. Third, we should accelerate building the community of geriatric services, improving the safeguards of old people. At last we should re-examine one-child policy.
If we can do these, I think we can have a much better society.
