In recent years, the government of the People's Republic of China has been reporting the country's population as "nearly 800 million." A variety of evidence suggests that this approximation is the best currently available in China, and that it may be some time before further, more accurate, demographic data are produced. The paper presents and discusses alternate population estimates and projections by UN, US, and USSR specialists.
近年来，中华人民共和国政府一直将该国人口报告为“近8亿”。各种证据表明，这一近似数字是中国目前所能获得的最佳数据，而且可能要过一段时间才能得出进一步的、更准确的人口统计数据。本文介绍并讨论了联合国、美国和苏联专家提出的不同人口估计数和预测数。
