Back in 2021, Beijing politely announced a 'new age' for its elderly, as if grandma just discovered TikTok. Fast forward to 2024, and authorities are turbocharging this mission with the subtlety of a fire drill in a library. No headline superstar here besides a vague 'policy guideline' showing China isn’t just waiting for seniors to chill—they’re aging full-throttle. Details? Slim pickings, but if this overdrive continues, next up might be mandatory daily tai chi choreographed by drones or AI-powered Mahjong tournaments. ‘New age’ or just China’s version of 'Bye, Boomer' on steroids? Stay tuned for more senior surveillance, because hey, it’s 2024 and eldercare just went Fortnite-level intense.
