Japan’s economic shift in one image 📉➡️📊
In 1995, Japan’s economy was larger than all of Asia combined. Fast forward to today, and its GDP is now smaller than just four Chinese provinces — Jiangsu, Shanghai, Zhejiang, and Fujian.
This isn’t just about Japan slowing down; it’s about how fast China’s regional economies have grown and how dramatically Asia’s balance of economic power has changed over the past 30 years.
What do you think matters more here: demographics, policy, or globalization? 🤔
