Abstract
Based on Vietnam’s 2009 population census, we use a population prediction model with three schemes (high, medium, and low) to predict the population and structural changes in Vietnam from 2010 to 2049, and we analyze the trend of Vietnam’s future aging population. Our results show that (1) Vietnam’s population will continue to increase in the next 40 years, but the population growth rate will continue to decline, and the population will exceed 100 million in approximately 2024; (2) Vietnam’s demographic structure will change significantly as the fertility level and life expectancy increase; and (3) Vietnam will enter an aging society starting in 2018, while the degree of aging will continue to deepen. The proportion of the population over the age of 60 in Vietnam will exceed 25% of the total population by 2049. In the next 40 years, Vietnam will face the severe challenge of an aging population.
