Abstract

This paper discusses the issues and implications of population aging for Singapore. As one of the fastest aging populations in Asia, Singapore faces the challenge of creating public policies to suit this changing age structure. This paper inspects a portion of the social and economic consequences of this quick move in Singapore's age structure. The paper also talks about various policies and initiative government is planning or performing to accommodate and sustain its aging population. An expanding level of elderly people who are not working are searching for work. This suggests that policies aimed at hiring older workers will be well received by the elderly themselves in future.
