Is it that there young people refused to get marry, infertility or excessive birth control.
More like cost of living is too high for young people to start a family there.

The richer a country becomes, the more the cost of living there rises. Ironically,most people living in a rich country can't afford to do so without credit or in other words, loans

Koreans have the idea that their blood is pure and must not be contaminated by outsiders

The 1000 Nigerians would be chased away before they get off the plane.

A black kenyan married a Korean. It took a while to convince the Korean lady's parents

A Korean man married a Ghanaian. The Ghanaian lady had to learn to cook like a Korean woman before the man's mother accepted her

And even if the 1000 Nigerians had kids, Dem go soon see that cost of childcare is very very high there. Rich country means high cost of living

Liberalism has finished the West and its puppet in Asia and Africa.

There's serious population decline in the west now making them to open their borders for islamic terrorists and other third world elements.

Japan, South Korea are now facing serious population decline as females are having reproductive failures due to stress, hormonal imbalance and career paths as well as of course casual sex.

This is one of the achievements of feminism

South Korea is giving bonuses for giving birth now. Trump has also considering something like that for the US but he won't say it openly that he wants white women to give birth. The question we should ask is WHY? Why are young people not giving birth or why are they not able to give birth?
Largely because childcare is very expensive in south Korea.

Even the bonuses are not enough

( Something similar was tried in Norway and Sweden. And Denmark. Even more generous. Didn't work)

Also in a rich country, you don't need kids the way you need them in a developed country. Again kids in developed countries are expensive. Better to be single under such circumstances

They should leave their borders opened for Nigerians to come in and help them out of the problem.

They should reach out to some developing countries that can send their school age kids to South Korea under some bilateral agreements
And who pays the teachers?

Don’t put your country in order, be depending on those who value integrity.

If you don’t know this is a country their prime minister resigned because of corruption allegations

Not quite

Cost of living and bringing up kids in Japan and South Korea is very high. Add the fact that salaries in Japan have stagnated since the early nineties.

Also, Japanese don't do causal sex. That may not be significant, but it is a reason why the population is low.

Femmisim is not popular in Japan and Korea as well too. Feminists don't like both countries at all. cheesy. In Japan, a woman who marries is expected to resign and be a full time housewife. Not a feminist thing

Take away all laws that enables women's madness, wokeness and stupidity, then young men will once again be interested in marriage and making babies.
We can do all that, but the cost of living is still going to be a problem.

Like now, there are many Koreans and japanese who want marriage and kids. But the salary they get paid is too low to sustainably look after one child there , talk less of three or five.

Irony of living in a rich nation is cost of living is high there too.

Raising a child is more expensive in South Korea, because they have the most expensive education in the world. You never chop bellefull, government wan finish you with tax, e no better make you decide enjoy your single life in peace.

In those days you didn't need to spend on things like internet, phones , electronics, even cars were relatively cheaper because they didn't have a lot of the stuff they have now. Houses too were cheap.

Also the image you get your idea of women were housewife comes from the USA of the fifties when the country was rich enough to sustain it. Cost of living as a family rising beyond income has changed all that

Also, cost of living. In Japan, salaries have so stagnated that even if a couple wanted to do what you say they should do, they will struggle financially with one child . Maybe if they move to the village, they might survive, but where are the jobs?. Same issue in Korea.

there are male brothels in Japan. Working women actually pay for casual sex there.

Japan is the 4th largest economy in the world just recently overtaken by India.

Multiple research and statistics show countries with high female population in the workforce are having serious population decline in all Western countries and Japan and South Korea

Why?? So that govt can efficiently care for the citizens ?? Lol....that one na lamba...

Weda we are few or many......out constant remains the same...which is resources management problem by leaders who pack the common wealth of 200milion ppe in their pocket.,

America is well over 340 million ...if their leaders teal the way they steal, they won't enjoy all the social welfare benefits they enjoy

Yeah, but the cost of living thing too is why many females are in the workplace

The idea of a single breadwinner ended when cost of living started to rise in the developed world ages ago. Even today in the most conservative areas of the world, women work. It costs too much to bring up a family

In Korea, when you have a child, you not only have to pay for school, you have to pay for extra lessons and tutoring, clothes and electronics for the child. Because in Korea if your child position in life depends on which university they go to. All that adds up.

Housing and even cars are more expensive over there too and then taxes are high there as well...that's why most women including the married ones work

I used to think like you do

But in a country like Korea, reduced population doesn't just mean closed schools.

1. It means things like transport services start closing down routes because not enough bus drivers or hospitals closing because not enough nurses or doctors

2. And it means more borrowing. To pay pensions. Because not enough workers to pay tax to fund the pensions. And also to pay for healthcare among other things.

The borrowing would be beyond tinubu borrowing by the way. Healthcare for elders for example is very expensive. Imagine a whole nation where most people are old

What we need in Nigeria is a government that is ready to make this country industrial and we would be okay

In Africa, the child runs in the dust and the sun, calling to uncles and aunts, and they answer. The mother’s arms are many in the village; meals come from the earth, schools are simple, and lessons are learned in work and laughter. The child grows with the rhythm of the land and the voices of those who love her.


It is not the child that costs more, but the world that surrounds her. In some places, life must be bought. Here, life is shared.

Because we are losing this value of who we are, happy with so little and enjoying life's simple things, the village is no longer raising the child and childcare is now getting expensive here as we chase the money that never ends and no one who has died values money more than family.

Na so. It's better to be single

In Nigeria, when we think of education, we think of just going to school and then coming home

In South Korea, there is school.and there is extra lesson. And the extra lesson doesn't last for two hours..it can be as high as six hours self. A child in secondary school may not get home till 11 pm self.

Let South Korea come to northern Nigeria to recruit young boys and girls and take them to South Korea. Within five years, the population of South Korea shall increase tremendously.
