Why are there so few elderly people in Cambodia?

The reasons for the small number of elderly people in Cambodia are:

1, poverty. Although Cambodia is rich in resources, it is poor in development, poor in domestic economic development and poor. Agriculture is their main industry. The annual gross domestic product (GDP) of the whole country is only over 24 billion US dollars (about 654.38+0666 billion RMB), which is about 654.38+0/654.38+04 of Chongqing, even worse than some third-tier cities in China. This has also led to economic backwardness in many areas of Cambodia, where the poor account for 28% of the total population and belong to low-and middle-income countries. Many families can't meet the basic food and clothing.

2. The technology is still underdeveloped. Especially medical technology. Cambodia is located in the tropics. Although it is very suitable for human survival, it is also very suitable for the spread of diseases, especially some very common acute infectious diseases, which break out on a small scale every year. Although it is small in scale, it is difficult to control it comprehensively and effectively because of the imperfect medical system in Cambodia.

Cambodia is very unstable. After many wars, I still suffer from them. Even countries surrounded by so-called mines. In large-scale group conflicts, thousands of people were killed, sometimes even hundreds of thousands of people were killed. This also makes Cambodia a small population, making it difficult to survive, let alone recuperate.
