Any job recommendations for elderly who doesnt know english, or have any form of educational qualification?

My parents are nearing 65 and his CPF is a meagre SGD 10,000. I am currently the only son and I worry i can't really handle the entire family's expenses. Any job recommendations for my parents so that they can help contribute to the family expenses as well?

Can try wood working if your dad is more of a hands on man like mine. For the mom, can go for selling home made goods usually food, crafts and so on. Not sure about actual jobs though.
