      The total number of births in Japan this year is expected to come in below 670,000—far fewer than the official forecasts put forth by the country’s National Institute of Population and Social Security Research, and the lowest since records began in 1899.This would mark the lowest annual figure since the government began tracking births in 1899. The National Institute of Population and Social Security Research, in forecasts updated in 2023, had expected 749,000 births in 2025 and did not predict a dip below 670,000 until 2041.

      By comparison, Japan’s Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare recorded 686,061 births in 2024—a 5.7 percent decline from the previous year—while the number of deaths outnumbered births for the 18th consecutive year, resulting in a net population loss of more than 900,000.

      Repost from literally a few hours ago, and you couldn’t even bother changing the idiotic title?

      IMO this is a perfect exemple of a government that have good intentions para is completely missing the mark with the changes they are implementing.

      In pure economic terms Japan would be virtually a perfect exemple of a country to have kids. It’s a very stable and safe country, with a good economy and plenty of good services, plus a lot of benefits on paper to parents. The government is really doing what on paper would be ideal.

      Problem is social pressure and work culture that turns having kids into a living nightmare, with lots of hoops to jump, expectations to adapt from your employees and the real possibility that you may stall your life and career for a long time. Until this changes it will very hard to turn this around.

      Yep, except the westerners who want to set a goal with Japanese women, it would be a great benefit.
