Keywords:Values;Lifestyles;Aspirations;Consumption Behaviors;Singaporeans;Elderly;Young AdultsReviews:“To provide an added measure of richness and depth of understanding the values and lifestyles of the participants, semi-structured interviews were used as a complementary research tool. Two demographic segments representing both ends of the age spectrum, that is, the elderly and the young adults were selected for these interviews. The choice of these two age groups has added interesting relevance to the findings. As the Singapore population is ageing, it is timely to know the issues and concerns of the elderly. On the other extreme, the young adults face a new set of challenges living in a globalized and competitive world.”Tan Chwee Huat National University of Singapore “For researchers and scholars, the study can serve as a springboard for further investigations into the fundamental changes in the value system that may incorporate new measurement dimensions … To policy makers the book makes numerous recommendations that not only have foresight but also are practical. It also suggests further areas of research for the policy making bodies.”Charles Yang Chairman, Uni-Net International, Inc. “This book by Prof Kau Ah Keng and his team has brought to the readers an excellent literature using all the modern, classical tools of social research … To anyone who is interested in understanding what makes a Singaporean ‘tick’, this book will be the place to go to … To the practising market researcher, in particular, this book offers an excellent opportunity to review his/her current market research methodologies, data analysis and reporting practices.”Dr Wong Toon Quee Managing Director Precision Research Pte Ltd '

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Element provides an opinionated introduction to the debate in moral philosophy over identifying the basic elements of well-being and to the related debate over the nature of happiness. The question of the nature of happiness is simply the question of what happiness is (as opposed to what causes it or how to get it), and the central philosophical question about well-being is the question of what things are in themselves of ultimate benefit or harm to a person, or directly make them better or worse off.

This book was released on 2013-07-15 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the cliches that Singaporeans hold most dear is that their lives are a pursuit of the five c's: cash, cars, condominiums, credit cards, and club memberships.

Singapore's PAP government has 'delivered the goods', and this is recognized as a prime reason for its legitimacy. But what is the culture of this consumption? What does shopping say about Singapore society?

Book Synopsis Affordable Excellence by : William A. Haseltine
Download or read book Affordable Excellence written by William A. Haseltine and published by Brookings Institution Press. This book was released on 2013 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Today Singapore ranks sixth in the world in healthcare outcomes well ahead of many developed countries, including the United States. The results are all the more significant as Singapore spends less on healthcare than any other high-income country, both as measured by fraction of the Gross Domestic Product spent on health and by costs per person. Singapore achieves these results at less than one-fourth the cost of healthcare in the United States and about half that of Western European countries. Government leaders, presidents and prime ministers, finance ministers and ministers of health, policymakers in congress and parliament, public health officials responsible for healthcare systems planning, finance and operations, as well as those working on healthcare issues in universities and think-tanks should know how this system works to achieve affordable excellence."--Publisher's website.

Book Synopsis Happiness and Wellbeing in Singapore by : Siok Kuan Tambyah
Download or read book Happiness and Wellbeing in Singapore written by Siok Kuan Tambyah and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-09-28 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To present a multifaceted and holistic perspective of what makes Singaporeans happy, Tambyah, Tan and Yuen discuss the findings and insights from the 2022 Quality of Life Survey, which examines the perceptions and views of 1,905 Singapore citizens. This is the latest survey in a series of studies on the wellbeing of Singaporeans. While the impact of the COVID- 19 pandemic on wellbeing is a timely discussion, the findings are also compared with previous surveys conducted in 2011 and 2016 to provide a longitudinal perspective of how Singaporeans’ wellbeing has evolved over the years. Key aspects of this topic include life satisfaction and satisfaction with specific life domains, aspects of affective wellbeing (e.g., happiness, enjoyment and achievement), economic wellbeing, psychological flourishing, personal values, value orientations and views on socio- political issues. Pertinent differences due to demographics such as gender, marital status, age, education and household income are also highlighted. The book also features four archetypes and clusters of Singaporeans, which are representative of the unique demographics, values and wellbeing outcomes examined. The findings and insights will be useful to academics, policy makers, practitioners, students and the general public who are interested in understanding the life satisfaction and wellbeing of Singaporeans.
