Ageing Lanka
Sri Lanka is one of the few developing countries in the
world which has an ageing population equivalent to that of a developed country
and is also faced with one of the fastest growing ageing populations in Asia.
It is predicted that the population over 60 years of age will double in less
than 20 years with the percentage of the over 60’s rising to 18% in 2020 and
27% in 2040.
