Set up database of senior citizens looking for jobs

I SYMPATHISE with Not Your Old Uncle, “I am not your ‘Uncle’ or a liability, I can still work” (The Star, Aug 23), who lamented the lack of job opportunities for senior citizens. Being 55 and even 65 today is considered the new normal middle age and only people like me (81) are truly qualified as seniors.

At the risk of sounding boastful, except for the physical limitations and lack of bodily strength, my other faculties are still functioning properly, truly by the grace of God. My memory bank is still operating normally and I can still vividly remember events that occurred during the Japanese Occupation.
