Singapore Retirement Village: Pulau Ubin an ideal choice

Straits Times Forum 19 Apr 10;

THE Government should look into the possibility of creating a retirement village on beautiful Pulau Ubin. I am sure it will be well received by senior citizens.

The small island, untouched by development, can be a resort-like green retirement village where the clean atmosphere, fresh breeze from the sea and lovely beaches will make for a healthy and relaxing environment in the golden years of life.

For families visiting their aged parents on weekends, it will be wholesome fun and a refreshing break from the chores of urban life.

The young can also spend the day on the island, cycling or going on a nature walk.
