Older Singapore men are more vulnerable to isolation after retirement: Report
Older men in Singapore are at a higher risk of isolation than women, according to a study by the Intercontinental Alliance for Integrated Care. The report also states that women fare better in old age, because they draw strength from family and close relationships. Associate Professor Justina Tan is from the Singapore University of Social Sciences. She explains why ageing differs for men and women and how that difference affects family and state support measures.
