Issues such as social welfare for the elderly, a policy on senior citizens, and even the fundamental question of whose responsibility it is to care for these seniors remain very unclear. The government feels that the responsibility for the elderly lies with their children, while families expect more help from the government.
遑論老人福利、老人政策，就連「誰來養老」的基本觀念，都還停留在政府將權責歸諸家庭、家庭期盼政府出更多力的曖昧不明階段。
