6. India’s Demographic Dividend
• "With a median age of 33, China's population is edging
toward middle age, while India, with a median age of just
25, is still relatively youthful. The ratio of workers to
dependents in China.... will likely peak at 2.6 in 2010, then
decline, leaving ever smaller numbers of workers born of the
country's one-child policy to support a vast aging population.

less sharp but longer lived; the ratio of workers to
dependents will peak at 2.2, but not until 2035, suggesting
that the potential economic gains from India's demographic
dividend are still to come...
