Ministry of Community Development, Youth
and Sports (MCYS), as the lead agency on ageing issues, drives the
national effort to enable successful ageing for all Singaporeans.
MCYS works in partnership with other ministries and agencies, via
the Ministerial Committee on Ageing to address key concerns on the elderly such as social integration,
financial security, employment, healthcare and intergenerational
cohesion.

Successful Ageing in Singapore |
| (Desired Outcomes) |
 |
At the individual level
Our senior citizens should age with respect and dignity as
integral members of our society. In particular, we want them
to be healthy, secure and active.
|
 |
At the family level
We want to see strong and caring families where members
care and support each other.
|
 |
At the community level
We want a strong network of community services to support
the family in its care of the young and old.
|
 |
At the national level
We want to develop a high level of preparedness,
maintain strong intergenerational cohesion, and
maximise the opportunities of an ageing population.
