Seniors can soon find out more about the Merdeka Generation Package from Silver Generation Ambassadors at their workplaces or nearby community spaces such as hawker centres.
"What the Silver Generation Office is doing is to bring engagement sessions down to workplaces where many of the Merdeka Generation are still working, as well as to community nodes which the Merdeka Generation are likely to frequent," said Dr Khor.While the percentage dropped to 41 per cent for those aged between 65 and 69 who were still working, it was still higher than the proportion of Pioneer Generation members who worked, which stood at 19 per cent, said Dr Khor.
"Working with ComfortDelGro to have these group briefings at the workplace makes it easier and more convenient for Merdeka Generation drivers," said Dr Khor. Taxi driver Haniff Mahbob, 67, said he felt the sessions were insightful as the brochures and talks gave a clear idea of the benefits that he could enjoy.
