Aging population - strengths or weaknesses?

It is never a good strategy to worry about other nations may exceed you one day.

The correct strategy is to learn to become and be the best and stay at best, always.

The contribution of language should be fairly trivial to the success of otherwise of a nation. Japan, Germany, for example, did not rely on English to succeed.

As to population age composition, it is as less important as one can put it to be. Time has changed. Nowadays, it is human "capitals" not labour force per se that is important for the economy. Population aging is a red herring. If you can tap into the wisdom and knowledge and skills of older population, you will get wealth of strengths, as opposed to weaknesses.

We need to analyse issues. It is not enough to just believe what you are hearing or have heard.

New time and new issues require new strategies. Don't fall into the trap of some conventional fallacies.
