    CW.339.VIKING BOER – CHINA WATCH – Why Aren’t Young Chinese Getting Married
    Love(less) In China: Why Aren’t Young Chinese Getting Married? | Insight | Full Episode

    Aug 29, 2023 #CNAInsider #Marriage #China
    Marriage rates in China are at an all-time low. With the country facing an aging society, low birth rates, and a shrinking population, Chinese leaders hope to turn this around. Insight examines the changing attitudes of young Chinese towards marriage and having kids.
    Compared to previous generations, why are young Chinese much less keen on the social model of settling down, buying property, and starting a family? How do higher education among women, changing conservative values, and a flagging economy factor into marriage? And is there anything that can be done to reverse this trend?
