IF Japan was a person, it would be in its 50s. By contrast, China would be a little over 30, slightly younger than India and more than a decade younger than Italy, a survey conducted in Japan showed.
According to 1,700 Japanese who replied to the online survey, their nation, at an average age of 51.7, was the oldest of nine nations from Asia, Europe and the United States, said Hakuhodo Institute of Life and Learning, a research center affiliated with advertising giant Hakuhodo.
More than half said Japan was in its 50s or 60s.
Giant neighbor China was the youngest at 31.5 years, Singapore came in at 32.5 years, and India was 32.7.
"The fact that China appeared to be so much younger probably reflects the sense most Japanese have of it being a nation that's full of energy," said a researcher.
Japan was closely followed by the US at 47.3 and Sweden at 45.8. Italy was at 44.6.
