AnnotationFor the purposes of this article, the very old are defined as aged 70 to 84. The focus is on the ethnic dimensions of ageing, based on the author's qualitative research on 45 older Singaporeans, 15 from each major ethnic group: Chinese, Malay, and Indian. Central to the findings are the roles of culture, religion and spirituality in the process of integration for older people in Singapore. (RH).
