BEIJING, July 8 (Xinhuanet) -- The world’s population reached 5 billion on July 11, 1987, and the United Nations set that date as World Population Day.
The theme of this year’s 21st World Population Day is “Everyone counts”, and the activities in China will focus on the 2010 population census and emphasize the right to life.
