Relocation

One key question that crosses the minds of many retirees or senior citizens is - where do you stay to spend the final period of your lives? I recall visiting one retirement centre in George Town in Tasmania and considered these homes both practical and ideal for retirees to spend the final part of their lives (Read here). Of course, not everyone finds this attractive!

For Monica, one of the ex-high school classmates chose to relocate to a place not too far from the homes of her children. Her decision to relocate permanently away from KK prompted the organizing of a farewell brunch. This gathering allowed her to meet up with her former classmates before she moves to KL in early December 2022.

This gathering on 25 November 2022 was held barely two months after we last met at Hyatt on 6 October 2022 when one of the ex-classmates came back to KK from Australia for holidays (Read here).

Just a few days ago, a few of us seniors gathered to look at a proposal about building a more high class retirement home/apartment on a piece of land for retirees and senior citizens. The land which is within reasonable distance to major facilities like airport, hospitals, parks and shopping centres is also within a forested area. All agreed that this setting is ideal for this type of development. While there may not be shortage of takers, the long term success of this retirement home depends very much on the health monitoring, nursing, personal care, social and recreational facilities provided and a good operator. Whether this will ever materialize is yet to be seen!
