My friends are more than a decade from being “aged”. While they may be more comfortable scanning QR codes to find menus or place orders, many seniors like my parents prefer the “human touch” to navigating apps. They are also the ones who would rather tolerate the long queues in banks than managing their funds on the phone.

Since its launch in 2022, Career Connect has supported more than 200 teenage girls from underserved communities. The programme, a partnership between leading global financial institution J.P. Morgan and SUTD, aims to inspire the next generation of women to pursue careers in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM).

The National Day celebrations concluded last week, and as the entire nation rejoices, we should not only take pride in our country’s achievements but also express our gratitude to the seniors who have contributed to the nation’s development. They are the pillars of our society and the foundation of Singapore’s prosperity and stability. On this special day, let us consider how we can better care for their physical and mental well-being, ensuring they remain active in society.
