Merdeka Generation Augmented Reality (compliment from ePrism)-67r_2F43Bes

Honouring the Merdeka Generation. ePrism programmed this for its users.

The Merdeka Generation Package is an S$8 billion Singapore government package announced at the 2018 National Day Rally aimed to assist Singaporeans born in the 1950s with their active ageing and reduce medical bills as they age.

Born between 1950 and 1959, the Merdeka Generation grew up during the tumultuous years of the 1950s and early 1960s. They steered the labour force in turbulent times, building a sturdy foundation. The men of the generation were among the earliest to serve National Service, while some of the women left school early to support their families.

Together with the Pioneer Generation, they have contributed greatly to Singapore during a time of struggle, hardship, and sacrifice.
