demography
The
population of Japan as per June 2008 stands at 127.7 million. Japan the 10th
most populous country of the world, contributes 2% of the total global
population. Population density in Japan is 339 persons per square kilometer and
ranks 32nd in the world in respect to country population density.
As per the latest stats median age life expectancy at birth
is 82.12 years of an average Japanese is 44.2 years and infant mortality rate
is 2.79 deaths per 1000 births. 66% of the entire Japanese population lives in
urban areas with an annual change rate of urbanization as 0.2%.
Japan is now a day is facing a sharp decline in its
populations as the population of deaths is outnumbering the population of
births in the country. This has impacted the growth prospects of the country
negatively. Longer life expectancy and low birth rates means that reducing
Japanese population is graying at a higher rate. This is an alarming situation
for Japan especially during this universal global recession time.
In 2008, the government of Japan recovered 1.14 million
deaths, the highest ever in Japan since 1947. It was until 2005 that the population
of births exceeded the # of deaths. But the figures have changed drastically
and in 2008 itself 1.09 million births and 1.14 million deaths resulted in a
population dip by over 50,000 people. Due to this population fall almost 25% of
the present Japanese population is of the age 65 and above, which further makes
the Japanese economy weaker.
Late marriages and more working women are the primary 2
reasons for the reduced births in Japan. The country has a low fertility rate
on 1.36 as compared to USA, 2.10 and France, 1.98.

in my opinion, japan is one of the country have the high rate of old people. japan is in big situation. japan is lack of young people. the people of japan do not want to have babies and marries now.it make the income of japan go down and do not have enough labor force for the future . To solve this situation, the government must import the labor force from the other countries and encourage people to marries and make a good condition to attract people come to japan to work. developing the technolgy to increase the productivity.
