The award will recognise outstanding senior individuals for their various contributions of excellence in their respective fields.

For the second year running, Amazing Seniors has carefully planned and put together events, such as talks by experts packed with up-to-date information that is relevant and applicable to Malaysian seniors. 




The experts will cover topics on investments, scams, retirement, wellbeing, and all things that can enhance our older community’s lives and lifestyle.

These activities include Malaysian seniors singing, dancing (traditional and modern), performing on musical instruments, taking part in fashion shows and much more.



“LIFE BEGINS AT 50: THE CELEBRATION is intended to celebrate the joys of growing older while simultaneously raise awareness about the role that older adults play in our society as we progress into an aged nation. 



According to the Department of Statistics Malaysia, as of the year 2020, adults aged 50 and above account for 21% of the country’s population and is expected to grow to 34% by 2040. Based on these findings, we feel the need for every Malaysian to recognize the key elements of successful ageing.



Malaysia can unlock a host of benefits for the nation by:

● Mitigating the economic effect of an ageing population by ensuring her people remain

productive through their old age.

● Expanding the consumer economy to provide the needs of older persons, some of whom will

have a greater propensity to spend.

● Creating a new economic driver for aged care and all its various adjacencies.”

Datin Jasmin Amirul, Amazing Seniors’ Co-Founder.



“Successful ageing can be multidimensional based on the interaction of 3 key elements which are the cornerstone of what Amazing Seniors platform aims to facilitate:- the avoidance of disease and disability; sustained engagement in social and productive activities; and maintenance of high physical and cognitive function.



We believe we have an important role to play in supporting the nation’s transition to becoming an aged society by adding value through creating a strong ecosystem that can support those intending to retire and those who have already retired.”Penny Low, Amazing Seniors’ Co-Founder.



Another event to be held during the festival will be the “Amazing Seniors Talent Quest,” which will take place nightly over the 3-day period. The Talent Quest was launched on 15th July 2023, attracting a total of 114 entries.
