Abstract

Beginning with the problem of lacking of labor forces, the reduction of the production, a problem is shown on the stage of the society, the population ageing. It has been a hot topic and the serious situation discussed in several countries, for instance, China, Japan, Italy, Germany, Finland. This caused problems of lacking of enough resources to provide them with indemnity. The cost of money and labor forces of the aging population solution show a trend of raising. It is generally believed that, during the past years, the birth rate was controlled because of family planning. Meanwhile, in the fast-developing world, the cost of education, medicine and other necessary issues should be considered when raising children. This has brought too much pressure. Consequently, although the elderly are able to live longer with the help of technologies, few people hope to give birth to new kids. That leads to the increasing of the percentage of old people in population. Authors met to discuss, validate and come to a consensus around the main points, bone of contention, and future development trends.
