MORE affordable pre-school and tertiary education, as well as the raising of the retirement and re-employment ages, will be among the many topics that Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong is expected to touch on when he delivers this year's National Day Rally on Aug 18.

The annual rally - the most important political speech of the year in Singapore - will be delivered at the Institute of Technical Education in Ang Mo Kio. It will be broadcast on local TV channels and radio stations, said the Prime Minister's Office (PMO) in a statement.
