That's not so much a statistic as it is a guess. The government are trying to fix things, and it will take time, but in theory things will be better before then. Furthermore, things aren't getting better right now, but they stopped getting worse at least.
Basically, no one can say FOR SURE if it's true or not, but everyone has various speculations, and considering how things are, how they are going, what plans there are for the future, and other facts that are to be taken into consideration here, I personally say no, it's not true.
