The French tried to burn down Paris when this happened. I wonder how the Chinese will react.
It’s raised to 63 for men and 58 for women… It’s still among the lowest in the industrialised world…
I’m not the biggest fan of China, but it’s still lower than most countries 🤷♂️
Boom, demographics problem solved. Checkmate capitalist pigs.
Rightly so.
It looks low, but I bet a 60 years old Chinese man is way more tired than a person from another country. It’s really stressfully to work 14 hours every day at that age.
Moreover, this means that these people won’t be able to take care of their grandchildren.
USA next.
Justin Trudeau wants this too
Guys, ffs. Just increase the migration of young foreign workers like every other country does
Raised again up to 95
