  • Reading Newspapers with the Elderly 陪你看报纸
    Reading Newspapers with the Elderly 陪你看报纸 A community initiative by Lianhe Wanbao & Lianhe Zaobao Singapore Engage • Enrich • Empower Since August 2014, Singapore’s Chinese dailies Lianhe Wanbao and Lianhe Zaobao have been promoting engagement with its matured readers with the Reading Newspapers with the Elderly initiative. For three times a week, our newsroom volunteers visit elderly Singaporeans and discuss the week’s hottest news with them. Through this simple but unique initiative, we hope to enrich the seniors’ lives and empower them to stay active, mentally and physically, and enjoy a fulfilling retirement. Why did we launch this initiative? Singapore’s population is ageing at an unprecedented rate. As the post-war Baby Boomers retire from workforce and enter their silver years, elderly population will grow rapidly in the next few decades. Many of our senior citizens are neither literate nor familiar with the English language, and the language barrier has made it difficult for the Chinese- speaking elderly to keep up with the fast-evolving society. Lianhe Zaobao and Lianhe Wanbao value the spiritual needs of our senior citizens and would like to do our part to help them lead a fulfilling retirement. As editors and journalists, we report on news of public interests every day. News is what we do best, so we believe that reading newspapers with the elderly is one way we can contribute to this cause. Why is this important? Many seniors in Singapore face the “empty nest syndrome”. Their children are often away and they only have the television and other seniors as company.
