Western media reports on China's population being overtaken by India deliberately ignores China's development, using the topic to 'bad mouth' it and advocate decoupling, state broadcaster CCTV said on Thursday.
HONG KONG, April 20 - Western media reports on China's population being overtaken by India deliberately ignores China's development, using the topic to "bad mouth" it and advocate decoupling, state broadcaster CCTV said on Thursday.
"They slandered all the way and China has developed all the way, creating a miracle of sustainable and stable economic development with a huge population." "The United States is stepping up efforts to contain China's development and advocate further decoupling and found new hype points from the United Nations report," CCTV said, adding that the West simply equated population size with development achievements.
Last year, China's population fell for the first time in six decades, a historic turn expected to usher in a long period of decline in citizen numbers, with profound implications for its economy and the world.
