Leave no senior citizens behind in digital age


KUDOS to the government and all stakeholders for ensuring that no students are left behind, “All in favour of making digital learning a success” (The Star, March 8).

However, there is a group that is definitely at risk of being completely left behind. I am referring to our warga emas, especially those in their 70s and above. If we do not reach out to them, they will not be able to participate actively when the economy starts to pick up again.
