BEIJING: Footage of a 92-year-old Chinese woman reportedly kept for years by her son in a pigsty has incited an online firestorm, as China grapples with the question of how to provide for its increasingly ageing population.

The woman, surnamed Yang, was kept in a pigsty by her son and daughter-in-law, who did not provide her with enough food or clothing and constantly beat and scolded her, according to the local Nanguo Morning News based in the southern Guangxi region.

A video of the woman's appalling living conditions appeared on China's Twitter-like social media platform Weibo.

"I cannot see things," said Yang feebly, inching herself towards the bars of her enclosure.

Her son and daughter-in-law claimed Yang had voluntarily moved into the doorless, fence-and-stone-enclosed "kitchen" beside their house, denying that she was kept in a pigsty, the Nanguo Morning News said.

Photos of a rag-clad Yang being rescued by local government officials appeared on Weibo after the video went viral earlier this month. She is now being treated at a local hospital, but has not fully recovered.

The videos and photos infuriated Chinese netizens, who accused her children of "inhumane" and "animalistic" behaviour, saying that the son and daughter-in-law "will be treated in the same way by their children when they get old".

China's population is rapidly ageing, and weaknesses in its elder care system have left hundreds of millions in dire straits, often without access to proper care and assistance.

The problem is even more severe in the country's vast rural areas, where elderly people are often left alone while their children migrate to big cities for jobs.

In 2013 China passed an "elderly rights law" which included provisions that required children to regularly visit their parents, among others.

The country now has more than 212 million people over the age of 60, according to the National Bureau of Statistics.Footage of a 92-year-old Chinese woman reportedly kept for years by her son in a pigsty has incited an online firestorm, as China grapples with the question of how to provide for its increasingly ageing population.

Living long n being a burden on others is a curse. The Soylent Green option is much more humane for both parties

like henry kissinger once said “Power is the ultimate aphrodisiac,” and “The elderly are useless eaters”.

the elderly can only consume and they contribute little to this world,even the wealthy ones are net consumers,they exchange their accumulated wealth in return for the younger population's work and labour and goods and services,in return the young receive their wealth or "money" which is essentially "debt paid forward" or owed to them.they are exchanging their hard work and labour merely for pieces of "IOUs" that they hope to exchange in future.a country's economy or standard of living is determined by its younger population to generate goods and services and be economically productive,since the elderly are mostly unable to work or are of little economic value,a country with a growing aging population will face a increasing number of consumers and decreasing number of producers.

thus a "soylent green" option or voluntary euthanasia should be offered by the government in order to solve the problem of medisave and medishield and cpf.elderly who are unable to fund their retirement or are economically unviable should be encourage to go for euthanasia.

the theory of overpopulation has been around since the 1790s when Thomas Malthus wrote the theory of population.there will always be more people in the world than can be fed, hence the need for wars and diseases. Felix D. was a Polish aristocrat, Bolshevik and creator of the "Cheka" "Man is of no importance. Look at what happens when you starve him. He begins to eat his dead companions to stay alive. Man is only interested in his own survival. That is all that counts. All the Spinoza stuff is a lot of rubbish."
