The Importance of Watching Elderly People’s Happiness

By the end of 2024, China’s population of people aged 60 and above will exceed 310 million, accounting for 22% of the total population. Actively addressing the aging population and ensuring the well-being of the elderly is not only a family matter but also a national issue. “Ensuring that elderly people can have a happy and fulfilling old age” has always been a heavy concern in President Xi Jinping’s heart.
