The One-Child Policy shaped the demographics of modern-day China, greatly reducing the country’s population growth. ... China’s shrinking population of working-age adults and growing population of elderly retirees has put pressure on the country’s workforce and social security system. ... In order to address its demographic challenges and increase its competitiveness globally, the Chinese government started the “Made in China 2025” initiative to push for high-tech manufacturing and gradually replace manual labor with robots.",
