Singapore Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong announced plans to raise the country’s retirement age to 65 from 62 over the coming decade or so, among other measures needed to take account of the city-state’s ever-longer lifespans.

The prime minister said his government has accepted “in full” recommendations made by a Ministry of Manpower Workgroup on Older Workers, aimed at allowing Singaporeans to work longer and save more along the way for retirement.
