a. One elder that you know, staying in Singapore;
b. One elder from a news article (anyone except Wang DeShun). This person can be staying locally or overseas. (Include the web link of the article)
The two elderlies selected should be vastly different to showcase how all three theories can be applied differently to both of them.
2.Pick any TWO of the following aspects:
a. Living arrangement and the neighbourhood
b. Healthcare needs
c. Employment or retirement
For each aspect, discuss the efficacy of how one Singapore policy and one related supporting resource can meet the needs of the Singapore elderly chosen in 1(a). Support your discussion with relevant photographs and/or pictures*.
