Chinese people are living longer! In 2024, life expectancy reached 79 years, achieving the Five-Year Plan goal ahead of schedule. The government is strengthening social security, advancing tech-driven elderly care, and enhancing healthcare integration to support a happier aging population. Meanwhile, 250 million people have received higher education, and China has the world's largest R&D workforce – proof that the "demographic dividend" remains strong. At the Two Sessions, ministers shared insights on elderly care and job opportunities.
