The population of China is reaching a plateau. Meaning that growth will slow down to pretty much nothing and remain unchanged for a while until the older generations start dying off and then the population will fall due to the relatively low number of young people.

The latest data released by the national bureau of statistics of China on April 28, 2011 indicate China now has a population of 1.339 billion, in comparison with 1.265 billion of 2000. What's also significant is13.3% of the total population being the 60 plus age group, a 3% increase of that of 2000 survey, while 16.6% of the total population being 0-14 age group in comparison with 27.7% of 1990 survey. China is now the only country in the world with population of seniors (65 plus) exceeding 1 billion.

Other reference data - top five countries in population (2009):

China - 1.334 billion
India - 1.203 billion
U.S.A. - 307 million
Indonesia - 231.5 million
Brasil - 191.5 million

Remember certain children and people are not counted so the real figure is much higher

A: "... through ..."?  Only "through" comes to mind is "Shenzhen agent can connect you with an employer, who's authorized to hire waigouren ... and can sponsor Z visa." It's not like every 10th person you meet in Shenzhen's hood can sponsor work visa ...  The only way to change from student to labourer visa is just a regular way by: 1. Finding an employer, who'll apply for an Invitation letter; 2. Exit China and apply for Z visa in your home country's Chinese embassy; 3. Enter China in 30-days after Z visa was stamped into your travelling instrument ...As I am aware, you won't be able to switch to Working permit by remaining in China....,so make ready for a return to your home .... -- icnif77
