Wan Rizal on CareShield Life and Long-Term Care (Amendment) Bill
Seniors and caregivers can face the future with dignity and confidence if we get the three “As” right, said MP Wan Rizal. The three “As” he highlighted parliament on Wednesday (Oct 15) refer to affordability with fair help and clear cost signals, adequacy that keeps pace with real pressures and is anchored by a respected care workforce, and accessibility that is simpler, faster and kinder. He said the CareShield Life and Long-Term Care (Amendment) Bill moves Singapore in the right direction and stressed the need to pair it with the Annual LTC Cost & Workforce Report, sustained workforce transformation that shares gains with both families and workers, and continued emphasis on prevention and mental well-being.
