I APPRECIATE the author’s insights in “Old is Gold” (Starbiz, March 7) regarding the potential benefits of raising the retirement age. However, I would like to present some alternative viewpoints on this important topic.

It’s worth noting that Malaysia has a vibrant and youthful population, unlike developed nations such as Singapore and certain Western countries where demographic shifts necessitate changes to the retirement age.
