Japan's Ministry beforebydownforfrominofoutoverunderup Internal Affairs and Communications released figures yesterday, just beforebydownforfrominofoutoverunderup the country's Children's Day national holiday on May the 5th. The figures show that the number of children in Japan fell beforebydownforfrominofoutoverunderup 160,000 beforebydownforfrominofoutoverunderup the previous year. It is the 33rd year beforebydownforfrominofoutoverunderup a row for the birthrate to decrease. There are 13 million fewer children in Japan today than there were in 1950.
