Lessons for an ageing nation


I TURNED 64 yesterday. I am now well on the wrong side of 60. The country we call home also has its birthday near mine. It turned 61 four days earlier.

I am ageing and so is the nation, with 15% of the population set to be above 60 in 2030. But this is not about the ageing, it’s about the nation.
