I have been a Senior (60 years old) since 2010. I still get reminders of how OLD l am and on what to do and what not to do.
These are my most basic rules.
I check the following daily before I leave the house:
1 My trousers are zipped
2 My wallet has enough cash for meals and my wallet is still in my pocket after I have paid
3 My smartphone is with me 4 My house keys are in my pocket
5 I have paid the parking fee
*I no longer worry if I have taken my car keys with me after locking the car because I have a spare key in my wallet
*I don’t have to check blood pressure, sugar levels, etc.
*I eat only what I like and not expensive (which is why I limit myself to 2 Magnum ice cream a week).

China has pushed a group of state-linked companies to buy exchange-traded funds, part of an effort to boost stock prices. So far, it isn’t working.

Can a Singaporean be a member of the Communist Party of China (CPM aka CCP)?

Mr Philip Chan Man Ping, a 59-year-old naturalised Singapore citizen, is the managing director of three property firms.
SINGAPORE: Singaporean businessman Chan Man Ping Philip has been served a notice that the authorities will designate him as a “politically significant person” under a law to counter foreign interference.
The Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) said on Friday (Feb 2) that the Registrar of Foreign and Political Disclosures intends to impose the designation on Mr Chan, a 59-year-old naturalised Singapore citizen, under Section 48(1) of the Foreign Interference (Countermeasures) Act, known as FICA.
The law seeks to prevent, detect and disrupt the use of hostile information campaigns and local proxies by foreign entities intending to interfere in domestic politics.
Mr Chan is believed to be the first person to be served notice under FICA provisions which came into force in December last year.
“Politically significant persons” – also referred to as PSPs – can include political parties, political office holders, Members of Parliament, election candidates and their election agents. Mr Chan’s case falls under a provision to designate individuals as a PSP if their activities are directed towards a political end, and it is in the public interest for the authorities to apply countermeasures under FICA.
The registrar served the notice to him on Friday, informing him of its intent, and he has 14 days to submit representations.
MHA said that the registrar assessed that Mr Chan “has shown susceptibility to be influenced by foreign actors, and willingness to advance their interests”. The foreign actors involved were not identified.

In excerpts from his interview with the website, Mr Chan said: “It is our duty as overseas Chinese to tell China’s story well, and to both spread and pass on the marvellous traditional Chinese culture while we are abroad.

Notices issued to Singaporean businessmen under foreign interference laws
Mr. Philip Chan Man Ping, 59, is a naturalized Singaporean citizen and is the general manager of three real estate companies.
Singaporean businessman Chan Man Ping Philip has been notified that authorities will designate him as a “politically important person” under a law against foreign interference.
The Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) said on Friday (February 2) that the Registrar of Diplomatic and Political Disclosure intends to arrest the 59-year-old Singaporean returnee under Section 48 (1) of the Foreign Interference (Countermeasures) Act (FICA). Mr. Chen, a citizen of Huahua, was identified.
The Act is designed to prevent, detect, and disrupt the use of hostile messaging and local proxies by foreign entities to interfere in domestic politics.
Mr Tan is believed to be the first person to receive a notice under the Financial Crimes Act, which came into effect in December last year.
“Politically influential persons” — also known as “politically influential persons” — can include political parties, political officials, members of parliament, election candidates and their election agents. If an individual’s activities are for political purposes, then Mr. Chen’s case falls within the provisions of designating an individual as a “politically influential person” and it is in the public interest for the authorities to take countermeasures under the Foreign Interference in Internal Affairs Act.
Chen ‘vulnerable’ to foreign influence: The Ministry of Foreign Affairs registrar served him with a notice on Friday informing him of the registrar’s intentions and he has 14 days to submit representations.
The Department of Home Affairs said the registrar assessed Mr Chan “demonstrated susceptibility to the influence of foreign actors and a willingness to promote their interests”. The foreign actors involved have not been identified.
The Registrar also considered that Mr Tan’s activities were “aimed at achieving political ends in Singapore” and that it was in the public interest to take countermeasures against him under the Federal Constitution.
As a designated political person, Chan is required to disclose to the Registrar each year any political donations he receives or accepts of S$10,000 (US$7,500) or more. He must also disclose his foreign ties and immigration benefits.
“These transparency requirements will help detect and prevent any foreign interference for political purposes in Singapore,” the Ministry of Home Affairs said.
If he is designated as a PSP, Mr Tan can appeal the decision to the Home Affairs Minister.
On Wen Way Investments’ website, Mr. Chen is the general manager of three companies – Wen Way, C&H Properties and Mutual Benefits Realty.
