Dream - Japan has experienced a significant decline in birth rates since several years ago. In 2023, there were only a total of 758,631 children born in that year.
The number makes the year 2023 the lowest record of birth rate in Japan. There are many impacts of the population crisis in Japan. One of them is hitting the sustainability of disposable diaper factories.
The impact of this crisis, one of the largest baby diaper manufacturers in Japan, Oji Nepia, will cease production of baby diapers for Japan and replace them with adult diapers. The company revealed that the demand for baby diapers is dwindling and only 400 million units remained last year, which is significantly different from the early 2000s when it reached 700 million units.
In addition, the mortality rate in Japan is actually higher than the birth rate. Last year, there were approximately 1.59 million deaths recorded in Japan. This is what underlies Oji Corporation's decision to produce elderly diapers.
Oji considers that meeting the needs of the largest population in Japan, namely the elderly, is considered more promising. This is because the number of elderly people is greater in Japan compared to babies.
"Moving forward, we plan to strengthen the production of disposable diapers for adults, which is expected to increase in Japan," said Oji representative.
Although so, Oji will continue to produce disposable baby diapers to be marketed to international markets such as Malaysia and Indonesia to increase foreign market sales.
The following is the translation of the given 'Bahasa' text to 'English' while preserving any HTML tags: "The population of Japan is predicted to shrink to only 88 million people by the year 2065. To address this crisis, the Japanese government has actually started various initiatives to encourage couples to have children there, ranging from financial support to additional parental leave. However, it seems that the programs implemented by the government have not yielded results."
The Prime Minister of Japan, Fumio Kishida, expressed deep concern over this existential crisis. Fumio, along with his wife, is known to have three sons, far above the average number of children for Japanese people. Report by Salma Rihhadatul Aisy. Source: SCMP
