Many recognise that the minute they stop working is when their health deteriorates very quickly, says Singapore's Deputy Prime Minister.
SINGAPORE: The majority of workers in Singapore want to work longer as long as they are healthy, said Deputy Prime Minister Lawrence Wong on Monday .
"The basis of this question is the narrative seems to be that we need to keep working. And if we are unable to do a particular job, we've got to retrain." Work is more than a source of income, and provides dignity and purpose, he added."There is something fundamental and important about work." "Certainly, the 'we' is not just Government efforts alone, but we also recognise that the Government has a role to play and can do more.""We think that there is some scope for Government spending to increase," he added, noting that Singapore spends about 18 per cent of its gross domestic product .
"It is really important to equalise caregiving at home so that we can have equality in the workplace," she said.
