The population aging not only reflects the progress of human society but also takes a broad and profound effect on the politics, the economy, the culture and the various aspects of the social life. The most direct problem brought by the population aging is that of the elderly security. In this article, the author first studies the features and trends of population aging in China, then review the developmental course and the establishment of the elderly security system in China, on this basis the author analyzes the main problems of the elderly security system in China and their cause of formation, and brings forward the countermeasures for establishing and consummating the elderly security system in China.I. The present situation and developmental trend of population aging in ChinaPopulation aging is a certain course of the development of economic society. Population aging refers to the course of social development in which the proportion of the elderly population continuously rises in the general population and as well as the aging of population age structure. The problem of population aging is different from that of the elderly population. The problem of the elderly population refers to the problems the elderly people bring to the development of social economy. Each country and area has the above problem. Based on the theory of demology, the types of population age structure are divided according to the different proportions of elderly population and young population. Of course, the division of population age structure is comparative, but not invariable. Some data reveal that the whole world will enter a world of population aging by the year of 2005.
