Abstract
Using large datasets on elderly care in Singapore, China and Indonesia, this paper will describe and compare the characteristics of elderly care recipients in an urban setting. The datasets used are the Singapore Informal Caregiver Survey 2011, the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey 2008 and the Indonesia Family Life Survey 2007. The minimum individual age covered in the Singapore and China datasets is age 75 and individuals observed have at least 1 ADL limitation. The minimum individual age covered in the Indonesia dataset is age 60 and individuals observed have at least 1 ADL limitation. We describe the demographics, living arrangements, physical health, self-rated health, health and social care utilization; and socio-economic status of the elderly care recipients and their care givers. Given the different levels of economic growth, institutional contexts and the extent of healthcare in each country, we will explain for the different patterns of care that the elderly receive.

摘要
此论文运用大量来自新加坡、中国和印度尼西亚的长者护理数据，去描绘和比较城市长者护理服务使用者的特色。文中使用的数据来自2011年新加坡民间护理提供者调查、2008年中国老人健康长寿影响因素研究调查，以及2007年印度尼西亚家庭寿命调查。在新加坡和中国的数据中，研究对象的最低年龄为75岁，并最少一项日常生活活动能力受限制。在印度尼西亚的数据中，研究对象的最低年龄为60岁，并最少一项日常生活活动能力受限制。文中会描述研究对象的人口特征、生活安排、生理健康、自测健康、社会医疗健保的使用，以及长者护理使用者和其护理提供者的社会经济状况。文中会根据各国经济增长的差异、制度的不同，及保健护理的适用范围，解释不同的长者护理服务模式。
