由于二孩政策未能“提高低出生率”，著名经济学家敦促尽快放开三胎

A prominent economist has urged to roll out a new 'three-child' policy in a bid to rejuvenate the country with a growing ageing population.

人口日益老龄化，一位著名经济学家敦促出台新的“三孩”政策，以振兴国家。

Ren Ze, the head of a major think tank, suggested in an analysis published yesterday that should allow couples to have three children 'as soon as possible'.

主要智库的负责人任泽平在昨天发表的一份分析报告中建议，应“尽快”允许夫妇生育三个孩子。

The proposal is aimed to tackle the continuously declining fertility rate and ageing population after 's two-child policy failed, Mr Ren said.

任泽平表示，该计划旨在解决二孩政策失败后生育率持续下降和人口老龄化问题。

Since 1979, couples in had been limited to having a single child, a rule, often brutally enforced, intended to slow population growth and boost the economy.

自1979年以来，夫妇只能生育一个孩子，目的是减缓人口增长，提振经济。

But the law, which is estimated to have prevented 400million births, also caused long-term economic problems, huge social upheaval and human tragedy.

这项法律据估计已经减少了4亿人口的出生，也造成了长期的经济问题。

With fears 's ageing population would slow its economic growth, officials announced a two-child policy in October 2015, which came into effect on January 1 the following year.

由于担心口老龄化会减缓经济增长速度，2015年10月，官方宣布了二孩政策，该政策于2016年1月1日生效。

The legislation appeared to have initial success as an additional 5.4million babies are thought to have been born in in the first 18 months after introducing the two-child policy.

这项立法似乎取得了初步成功，在二孩政策实施后的头18个月里，新增出生540万婴儿。

But it has not worked as well as officials wished as the country's birth rate continued to drop since 2015, according to Mr Ren, the head of the Evergrande Research Institute.

但恒大研究院院长任建新表示，由于的出生率自2015年以来持续下降，这一政策并没有达到官方希望的效果。

In a new analysis penned by the renowned economist, he stated that as a result of the unsuccessful two-child policy, the ageing population and low birth rate had become one of the biggest underlying threats facing in this century.

在这位著名经济学家撰写的一篇分析文章中，他指出，由于二孩政策的失败，人口老龄化和低出生率已成为本世纪面临的最大潜在威胁之一。
