#trending: 102-year-old woman working at provision shop in Beauty World Centre goes viral on TikTok
Madam Sie Choo Yong's son said that she is healthier than him who has diabetes. "This store does not make a profit, it is just for her to pass time. We would make more money renting it."

Those who retire early also died early.
I believe LKY when he mentioned that working kept his mind sharp and body active.

It's good to do some work.
Anything as long as you're comfortable.
Know one elderly.
Family refused to let her do any house work.
So everyday, sit watch TV and sleep.
Not good for her.
Later, family change their mind. Let her do the cooking.
She then got busy everyday.
Lively again.

Not that rare in Singapore
The number of centenarians in Singapore – those aged 100 and above – was 1,500 in June 2020, having more than doubled from 700 in June 2010.
