去年生育率写历史新低 日本卫生部称情况危急

日本生育率连续八年下跌,去年的生育率更写下历史新低,当地卫生部称情况“危急”。

法新社报道,日本卫生部星期三(6月5日)发布的数据显示,日本去年的出生率为1.20,远低于维持人口所需的2.1个孩子。

去年出生率低于2022年的1.26,更写下1947年开始记录以来的最低水平。

一名卫生部官员说,经济不稳定、工作与育儿困难等,是造成出生率低的原因。

当地议会星期三批准一项修订法案,为父母提供更多经济支持,改善儿童保育服务,并扩大育儿假有关的福利。

首相岸田文雄强调,出生率问题是日本社会面临的迫切危机。

尽管日本出生率高于邻国韩国,韩国的出生率只有0.72,是世界最低,但日本是继摩纳哥之后世界老龄化程度最高的国家,因此日本政府想方设法鼓励婴儿潮,以避免出现人口危机。
