Low birthrate and ageing population pose ‘an urgent risk to society’, but can opening its borders to skilled overseas workers fix the problem?

    Has there been a communist state that’s encouraged immigration? It doesn’t seem like it. Certainly not USSR or China.

      China is pretty closed tight, they do less than 1% of the immigration that the US does each year. In fact, in 2022, China only issued a total of 1,576 permanent residency cards, compared to the US’s 1.2 million, or about 1/750th of the US.

      I’ve looked into moving to China, it’s not easily done.
