Credited from: NYTIMES

  • In 1989, Japan faced a **record low fertility rate**, prompting concerns from government officials about long-term social and economic impacts.
  • Policymakers introduced several **initiatives** from the 1990s, including childcare leave, subsidized daycare, and cash allowances for families.
  • Despite these efforts, Japan's fertility rate remained low at **1.2** last year, with Tokyo's rate falling below **one**.
  • As Japan's situation continues, other developed nations are similarly witnessing falls in fertility rates below the **replacement level** of 2.1 births.
  • Experts caution that low birthrates could lead to negative outcomes, despite a global population still being in surplus.
