Singapore’s fertility rate has fallen to a historic low, and Prime Minister Lawrence Wong has signalled that there are no plans to introduce a new population target or revise the figures set out in past population planning discussions.

Instead, the focus is on maintaining stability and avoiding population decline in an increasingly uncertain demographic landscape.

For many people, career success is often seen as something that peaks in midlife — a journey of climbing the ladder, reaching milestones, and eventually winding down towards retirement. But what if your most meaningful work is still ahead of you?

As people live longer, work longer, and rethink traditional ideas of success, more are discovering new passions, purpose, and even entirely new careers later in life.

On The Agenda, Hongbin Jeong speaks with Ryo Leong and Poh Wah Lee, two individuals who have taken very different paths to finding fulfilment beyond the conventional career timeline. From embracing reinvention as a portfolio professional to discovering purpose through serving others, they share how their experiences have reshaped their understanding of work, success, and what it means to make a meaningful contribution at any age.
