KUALA LUMPUR: Healthy ageing must not become a privilege reserved only for those who can afford it, Sultan of Perak Sultan Nazrin Muizzuddin Shah said.
The ruler said that while longer, healthier lives were among modern civilisation's greatest achievements, the benefits should not depend on how much money a person has.
"A society is ultimately judged by whether the opportunities it creates remain within the reach of its most vulnerable citizens.
"Healthy ageing must be inclusive by design. The environments, services and technologies we develop should widen access rather than deepen existing inequalities.
