According to the Singapore Population Census 2011 survey, “the number of residents aged 65 years or older will multiply threefold from the current 300,000 to 900,000 in 2030” (Department of Statistics Singapore, 2012).

In addition, the National Health Survey 2004 showed that a whopping 85% of Singapore Residents aged between 65 and 74 years suffered from one or more of the following conditions: diabetes mellitus, hypertension and high total blood cholesterol.
