So I’ve decided to live alone near nature if I am able to live until old. When I die, at least I can decompose and become food for scavengers. No sentiment. I’d love to be forgotten.

That's so sad, in today's world we are losing the sense of community, taking care of each other as a community, we are becoming more materialistic and egomaniac because of which we are pulling away from our loved ones.
It happens in the united states as well. People like myself with no living family. I'm the end of my bloodline with no children. I will probably die lone, but that does not cause me concern or stress. I look at it this way...I will live until I die.
@@davidharrow9025 no. They died years ago. As I said, I'm the last. Both sides of the family dies with me. But its ok. Yes holidays aren't great, but I have my church and wonderful neighbors. And as I've said many times in my life, I never ever regretted not having kids. This is the life I choose. I kind of knew this would eventually happen, but I'm emotionally ready for it.
I remember seeing a wall mounted device that make you input a code everyday to make sure you're alive. If a was not input, the device will first sound alarm and then will call emergency numbers. Can't remember what the device was called.
I would also like to live alone..My parents are extremely difficult and controlling to live with. My sibling turned out to be anti-social. There is no life to live with a family loke mine. Better live your life while you can other than regretting every moment of it.
Thanks for the video. I am 62 and I have no wife or kids. I live in the USA and understand why people die alone. If I did not call others, no one would know if I am dead or alive. I wonder if I will die alone but I guess it does not matter because we all have to dine one day. I think the lucky ones are those who die before their health goes. My Mom ,90, fell and broke her arm and she laid on the floor all day before she called my brother. She did not call the police because she did not want to pay for the rescue squad. It is sad to grow old and not able to take care of yourself and no one to help you.
In Korea, the number of lonely deaths has also increased by an average of 8.8% per year for five years since 2017. Divorce or separation accounted for half of the cases, and suicide was the most common cause of death, followed by addiction and suffocation. However, about 63% were found to have died of acute alcoholism and chronic alcoholism, so they feel that mutual organic and social measures against loneliness and alcohol disorders are necessary.
We found that my dad passed on when we are out at work, unfortunately i was in HK working. Today, i continue to develop and bring in solutions to reduce such occurrences. - embed (connecting care)
What I'm about to say may not be directly related to the actual video topic. But I'm disappointed by the topic title. The use of the word "lonely" just to catch a little attention, or just to add a little "impact". Death is always going to be lonely. Whether or not you have any friends or families. When a person is about to leave our world, he or she is alone in spiritual and mental. This is a natural fact and many people need to know and accept this fact. Don't let it become a fear and control you. Everywhere the society is telling people that it's "bad" to live and die alone. Hence the MAJORITY likes to have the idea of getting married and have a family even before they even understand what it is all about. (Look what it is doing to our society) Alone and being lonely are 2 different things. The topic title should be saying that there are people dying in their homes without people knowing. As a news channel, you guys should be careful about what you typed.
Those who left earlier are the lucky ones as their love ones and friends are stll around. That is the reward for living too long good folks, you are lonely with others all gone, all kind of sickness is with you and nobody to talk with but had memories way back then when you were young and pictures. Do you want to live foreever in this case? Assisted living is for those who could afford.
This trend not only in Singapore or South East Asia. I believe has doing with family dynamics. My Father died alone his house age 82 Even though my brother and check up with him regularly. If we forced him living with one of us,; It won't work since fiercely independent person. I sometimes worry since I am following same pattern. But, I try stay contact with Family through emails or phone calls.
My experience in Thailand, foreigner residency need to report to immigration every 90days with address, i think its crucial we have plarform that track people residential status, especially Condo
I knew a woman in Saint Peters Adelaide whom lived in the front home . Her name was Edna. I moved away but stayed in contact as I could. I missed her call when she died. I ended up at her home somehow. EDNA had a fat inside black and white cat unfriendly to strangers whom liked hiding under her bed. From outside the unit I smelt death. Edna died in hospital . I believe the hiding cat wasnt saved.77
Childless, single and die alone. Either die of old age sickness or starvation because lack of savings. Savings usually use up when you are old and unemployed for a long time. Who will employ sick and old people past retirement age? That is the hard truth and a taboo subject in industrialized Singapore. Oh, by the way, anyone of you can be my friend?
Dying alone is the most honorable thing to do but unfortunately not too many have the privilege to enjoy it. I am sure we all had many occasions when we actually witnessed people dying in front of us and many of them were our loved ones. These scenes never went away and by dying alone, at least it leaves behind fond and not heart breaking memories for those who carry on. The last drop in life and the struggle to cling on to it is sad and frightening and the experience of holding the hand of a dying person until the last drop is gone stays on forever.
Our community/society is getting independant so we expect the numbers (dying alone) to rise even more. Lets try to keep one another in checks & interact /reach out to the elderly neighbours more
it’s a good topic and start as a talking point but I believe there will be more reasons in the coming future even though it’s not that obvious to this present times so do we wait till it happens or do we discuss it now so as to prevent?
I don’t have any friends. I spend my time alone. I have an IPhone and got 3 calls in 6 months. They were all from my Doctor. I know I be alone. People make me nervous.
Its good this topic is being talked about. But Singapore is still way behind in recognizing there is a huge problem. Look at what the lady said at few minutes into video. The host asked her: "By living alone, these people would become isolated, reclused?" And the lady replied "Possible ", "it could lead to that". 🙄 What does she mean it's possible, it could be?! It's happening, been happening for decades, and it's gotten to be a big problem! With that mind set (that woman's), its already showing how behind we are. Take Japan as an example. The government has been taking "Hihikomori" very seriously. They know it's not only "possible" to be become isolated/reclused from the outside world, it IS happening. There are too too many of these cases where loners were found dead alone, living in a hoarded condition. In 2019, Japan, the stats are: 2996 individuals were found dead by themselves. 1431 of those people were found within 3 days 1183 found within a month, 382 were not found for over a month. Is it only happening in Japan?? Of course not! Seeing those numbers, that's why it's a piss off seeing/hearing this lady (who's supposed to help) say things like that. "It's possible, or it could lead to that". As if it's not already happening in Singapore, but it may possibly. 🤦🏻♀️ Perhaps that lady should go out in the field, take her around to see it first hand for herself.
Not feeling sorry for myself…just a fact…I’m going to die alone…that’s not my problem, doesn’t matter to me. but my problem, what matters for me is I’m living alone,with no friends having done for years because of my traumatic brain injury,( craniotomy, brain tumour, strokes and aneurysm) and cptsd . Nobody understands my handicap… ( apathy, monotony, lack off reaching, if any at all, just telling me that I should be more social,get out more… and loads more bull….im not able to… all my former friends understood until they didn’t! Love ❤️ and peace ☮️ to u all from me in Denmark 🇩🇰
same here, I don't have any family, but I have bestfriends, they help me a lot, I'm depressed all of my life. I thought my life was better, until I working with one of my friend, she really cut all my feelings as her please, we don't match at work, she always blame me for everything, give me silent treatment when she's in bad mood, doesn't want to work together, I was confused with all her action cuz she such a lovely friend. it's really good when you have someone to relly on, but it will hurt so much when they treat you like that. I already apologize to her if I had mistake, but she's get away with everything she did to me, she said that's just how she act, and I have to suck it up. before I'm scared of living and die alone, Now I'm scared for having someone
It is great problem ie because this is lack of holyspirit in the place, Not worshiping specially once a week.Thinking materially obsecessed or materially minded without noticing biblical facts, faith, jesus death for sinners is a big factor missing on purpose of life. Imput of biblical parameters in divine purpose, Life is short to everybody rich or poor, but that isnt the purpose of God.Science or tecknology can help to use or medicate but it is only God the creator through holyspirit can heal and salvate. God has a kingdom purpose to ourlife through jesus christ for Eternity. It the devil inside the inner that command giver inside the victim to die and putting him in condemnation. This the problem of materialism minded set of mind. We arent only fleshly composed but we are flesh with soulspirit innerman enveloped inside.If we obey the devil, we are in flesh, earthly pocessed or calamatised inside. Oursoulspirit is eternal that we are judged later, whether we accepted the righteousness of God through Jesus to have salvation or accepted the devil to be condemned.
I'm very happy the media of Singapore brings awareness to important subjects like this. They're making a difference!
Cameron Moisan yes, so true ! From Chicago.
Me too
People now a day's are so full of hostility. And are rude, selfish and belligerent. I feel safer and comfortable when I'm alone in my apartment.
Go to church. There is free love
@@joanqueen8009 nothing is free. u need to convert, baptised and pay tithes.
@@joanqueen8009 ya dump cant she right
Get your head out of your ass
I feel this on so many levels
So I’ve decided to live alone near nature if I am able to live until old. When I die, at least I can decompose and become food for scavengers. No sentiment. I’d love to be forgotten.
That's beautiful
I was looking to find good solution of lonely death after dead body who will take our body you written some logical solution good one 👍

No one is antisocial..its that that is not your tribe..
A very meaningful documentary. This is the trend in the future 50 years globally.
Death is death - lonely or not.
when society prioritizes money that's what happens.
So true dean.
.filipino people are family oriented not like them..
Not the society But the Primitive Human instincts of throwing away the ‘no longer useful ‘ ones
Exactly
I like living alone, honestly might end up like this as well.
This is common in USA elderly dying alone, that’s why burial insurance is big business here.
Just like in Japan everything there in Singapore is so expensive i wouldnt be surprised those elderly homes cannot be afforded when you get old
I prefer living alone
18:48 "I've fallen, and can't get up!" Colourised 2020.
CNA is quality true story and carrying.

So what? We all die alone anyway. Nobody comes with us.
Very good program thank you for posting it.

Aren't ALL deaths lonely? Even if loved ones are at the bedside, they carry on with their lives afterwards.

There should be a social worker who regularly visit elderly people especially those living by them self , check their health conditions
I fall into the category of being an isolationist, so I will die alone.
I knew a woman in Saint Peters Adelaide
whom lived in the front home .
Her name was Edna.
I moved away but stayed in contact as I could.
I missed her call when she died.

whats wrong in dying alone? u wont be alive to feel bad about it

It seems dying alone has nothing to do with richness/poverty.
Those who died in lonely situation, don’t they have friends or relatives to visit them before they die.
So sad 😢

"'People in the city they dont care one another. They are just Indifferent." japanese guy.
In cases of sudden demise
No prior warning given
But why are we concerned about the people dying lonely
I don't know about other religions, but muslim don't want to die alone, coz we want to say syahadah before we die and need someone to assist
I don’t think I could do this job, especially you smell the decomposed dead people, have to be strong.
I'm curious does the police check the national registry to check someone's relatives?
IDK

To do this job must have a strong stomach and courage to see dead people,
The old way is still the best, where old people can live dan take care by their families, and not dying alone
Sad.💔
This is exactly what im thinking what will happen to me
Nice video
It exists in America too. It's the fate of single tradesmen.

Why do we have lonely deaths? Because you have people living alone. Rocket science, I know.
just like in japan

I don't mind. I like to die in my own home.
