Allowing egg freezing in Singapore among recommendations in PAP paper on women's issues

SINGAPORE (The Straits Times/ANN): The People's Action Party's (PAP) women's wing and youth wing have called for workplace anti-discrimination laws and full flexibility for couples to share parental leave.
Women should also be allowed to freeze their eggs for non-medical reasons, the PAP team said in a joint paper released on Thursday (July 29).
The joint paper, which sets out a total of 12 recommendations aimed at improving women's development in Singapore, comes after the Government announced last September that it was embarking on a comprehensive review of issues related to women and gender equality.
The review will culminate in an upcoming White Paper that will be introduced in Parliament later this year.

SINGAPORE: At his wits’ end, Mr Danny Raven Tan, 53, once threatened his dementia-stricken mother with a chopper because she was “driving him nuts”.
Since she was diagnosed with the illness that causes impaired intellectual functions and personality changes in 2015, his mother, who is now 88, would tiresomely ask him about his father and godmother, both of whom had died, frequently raise her voice at him and accuse their helper of stealing her money.

Information obtained from CHAS, Singapore, accurate as of 10 Feb 2020. Subject to changes.
The Community Health Assistance Scheme (CHAS) was initially meant to alleviate medical and dental care costs at participating GPs and dental clinics for Singaporeans belonging in a lower-to-middle income household. However, due to the introduction of the Pioneer Generation Package (PGP)] and Merdeka Generation Package (MGP), the elderly are now eligible for all enhanced CHAS benefits – regardless of their household income. The Merdeka generation can receive up to up to S$28.50 subsidy per visit for common illnesses; up to S$135 subsidy per visit (capped at S$450) for selected complex chronic conditions, and up to S$21 to S$266.50 subsidy per procedure for selected dental services.
