Ang Wei Neng on Retirement and Re-employment (Amendment) Bill
Turn the "silver tsunami" into a "silver lining", said MP Ang Wei Neng in Parliament on Monday (Nov 1). A whole-of-Government approach is needed for this to happen, he said. He made suggestions in three broad areas. Firstly, allow more senior Singaporeans to work for as long as possible if their health permits. Secondly, have flexible housing arrangements to enable Singaporeans to age at home. Thirdly, create a national volunteer registry to tap on the silver generation to make a difference to society.
