Chairman, Frasers Centrepoint Trust
Chairman, Mind Science Centre
The Mind Science Centre has a mission to build mental resilience among Singaporeans, through research, education, and most importantly through interventionist programmes that directly benefit the community. It is our hope that MSC’s initiatives such as the Age Well Everyday (AWE) programme and Dementia Asia can start a popular national movement that impacts great numbers of seniors. Seniors, myself included, should be able to grow old with equanimity, minus the fear that we may live our final years lonely, depressed, demented, or worse.
There is now a growing urgency for innovative strategies to combat the rising rate of psychological problems and dementia in Singapore and Asia due to a fast-paced lifestyle and an ageing population. In response, MSC promotes the use of non-drug, psychosocial interventions to build the mental resilience of the community from adolescents to the elderly.

There can be no health without mental health. Mind Science Centre initiated Asia’s first study on dementia and depression prevention from community-based interventions. As we move forward, we plan to continue looking into how people can be empowered to take charge of their ageing process with resilience and perseverance.
