SINGAPORE: From reviewing and improving on the CPF system to adding more hospital beds, steps are being taken to ensure that Singapore’s elderly are taken care of, the Government said today (May 20).

"We recognise that older Singaporeans are concerned over their retirement income and eldercare options," the Government said in an addenda statement to President Tony Tan Keng Yam’s address at the reopening of Parliament last Friday.

Elderly sinkies should be allowed to have free medical care. They should not be made to depend on children for financial assistance to pay for their hospitalisation and outpatient treatment. If Tony could give away millions $$$$ to Pinoy land and Indonesia like red packets, why did not the pappies use that kind of money to provide free medical services for the elderly?
