China has a birth rate of one child per woman, Japan is at .7 last I read. Most of the developed world is sun downing but with Japans stance on immigration they're in worse shape.

I am not sure I'd call it sundowning if we have immigration

I thought a lot of Europe could correct their decline through immigration once it started people started voting to remove them.

Can a country as industrial and as large as China bring in enough people to combat the decline?

China probably can't do it. I doubt they would want that as well! They're fairly homogeneous, right?

I don't think of China as very homogeneous.
