Those people said thay WANT to work, not that they LIKE to work.
There's a huge difference.
Who wants to work when they are old...unless they have no choice but to carry on. Everyone wants to retire when they are old. They have to work simply b'cos they have no money. Who likes to work when they are old. Nonsense again!!!! 
Just think. Money stuck in CPF, some got conned by banks, electricity up 22%are just some examples.

Of cos have to work, in everything-high-priced sinky if don't work, will die
The issue is not whether they 'like' to work. That's misleading.
Instead it should be that people have a right to retire, if they choose to do so, and only return because they actually have the right to 'un-retire'. But they shouldn't be forced to return back to work, just because they increase the CPF withdrawal age.
What we don't want is to see elderly already working for pennies at McDonalds, or washing toilets at hawker centres/kopitiams or being homeless, being forced to beg or rely on charity organisations for $300 monthly and food.
As long as the PAP government reinforces this social darwinist model on Singapore, it makes them and us hypocritics of the value that we have to take care very well of our elderly as much as we take care of our children.

I think is more of retribution to them. Life is not that simple after all.
The last 2 years of your life is how you have lived your life time.
As usual... despicable papaya motives... nxt they say "Avg folks live very long" then "If tat the case we shell increase the retirement age" then "Lidat hor we oso delay releasing ur cpf 2 u lor"... I bet wat they really wish to say "Your CPF is ours now". TLLMKCCYYLCH!!!!
No. My goal is maximum profits, just like the church !!
Do dutifully continue to pay up your tithes you idiot !!

I though it's already happening 
That is not an impossibility. Corporate social responsibility is very important today as corporations find that sustainable revenues of a company are only possible by ensuring that they contribute to to a sustainable and healthy society.
Given that I'm financially stable, i would still work through my retirement. It gets boring teeing off everyday.
However the work has to be spiritually enlightening as wealth at this stage is no more an issue. You can't bring money to your grave and your children need to learn their own way of making money.
