| Annotation | The problems of older people (age 60+) in India are four: income security; health care security; personal (physical) security; and social and emotional security. The author presents statistical indicators, and suggests alternative social security systems based on those in South Korea, Singapore, Germany and Japan, which India could use as models for reform.
