"content": "and knowledgeable. They have skills that they have acquired with time. Letting them retire is good as it gives way to the youth. However, it will also be wasting knowledge and Government resources because they were well trained. It will be good to come up with something for the people who retire, especially those with special skills, to ensure that they do not just retire with all their knowledge. If they are not kept busy after being busy all through their working lives, they are likely to die early because they will feel that they are not required in the society. It is important that before they retire, they have pre-retirement training so that they know what they will do when they retire. Some of them start businesses which fail after a short time. However, if they are given a chance, even if it is not for pay to give advice and guidance, they will feel relevant and in doing so, they will live for more days. So, it is important to have people retiring at 60 years taken through pre-retirement training. If possible, the Government can identify firms where they can be absorbed and even if they are not paid, they will remain relevant. Thank you, I support the Bill."
