Aging and the future of Singapore

This collection brings together speeches from Singapore Perspectives 2018 on how an ageing population may reshape life in Singapore. Its contributors examine the adjustments facing businesses, workers, individuals, and families, alongside questions about how economic, political, and social institutions can respond. The book connects demographic change with choices made in the present, framing those choices around outcomes for both current and future generations. At 136 pages, it offers a focused collection on the social and policy dimensions of ageing rather than a single extended argument.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in Singapore’s demographic changes and their social implications
  • Those exploring eldercare, family life, work, and ageing-related public policy

Book overview

Singaporeans enjoy one of the longest lifespans in the world today. Singapore is also one of the most rapidly ageing societies in the world. Given these population trends, business and workers, individuals and families will experience significant changes in the way they work, play and organise their lives together.

This book is a collection of speeches presented at Singapore Perspectives 2018 by leading thought leaders and eminent speakers on how our economic, political and social institutions can best adapt to and manage a rapidly ageing population. Contributors to this book tackle the urgent need to shape mind-sets, policies and decisions today for the best outcomes for current and future generations.
