Update news vietnam birth rate
Urban costs are putting pressure on young couples as many of them prioritize enjoyment and spending time and money on personal pleasures over having children.
While financial concerns are a key factor, experts argue that emotional stress and changing societal values are equally responsible for Vietnam’s declining birth rate.
If fertility rates remain low, Vietnam will face a shrinking workforce and aging population. The government is considering policy changes to reverse the trend.
The Ministry of Health has proposed allowing couples to decide the number and timing of their children, as well as addressing regional disparities in birth rates.
