Ball game measurement and analysis on Android
Singapore is having the slowest growth rate in the last decade. Beside facing the slow growth rate, the citizen population aged 65 and above have also increase from 11.7% to 12.4% within a year from 2013 to 2014 [1] . This means that Singapore is facing an ageing population. There are many effects w...
