Smart designs for an ageing population
Singapore’s life expectancy is one of the highest in the world. Its older population (age 60+) is projected to grow from 814,000 (15 per cent of population) in 2012 to 2,308,000 (38 per cent) by 2050 – faster than Japan. At this rate of growth, Singapore is anticipated to become the world’s 4th ‘oldest’ country in the next three to four decades.
