Merdeka &
Pioneer
Generation
Benefits

Honouring those who are born between 1950 and 1959, the Merdeka Generation grew up during the tumultuous years of the 1950s and early 1960s. They steered the labour force in turbulent times, building a sturdy foundation. The men of the generation were among the earliest to serve National Service, while some of the women left school early to support their families. Together with the Pioneer Generation, they have contributed greatly to Singapore during a time of struggle, hardship, and sacrifice.

You are eligible for the Merdeka Generation Package if you:

Were born from 1 January 1950 to 31 December 1959; and
Became a Singapore citizen on or before 31 December 1996.

The Merdeka Generation Package is also given to seniors who:

Were born on or before 31 December 1949; and
Became Singapore citizens on or before 31 December 1996; and
Do not receive the Pioneer Generation Package.

If you are eligible, you will be notified by April 2019, and you will receive your Merdeka Generation Card from June 2019.
