QUOTE(xuzen @ Feb 18 2016, 11:37 AM)
This is my opinion between KWAP & KWSP:

I) KWAP is what we termed defined pay-out scheme. This means that come rain or shine, KWAP must pay out the a definitive cash flow to its beneficiaries. In this case it is usually a % of last drawn salary until the beneficiary attain mortality (sampai mati!)

II) KWSP is termed defined contribution scheme. This means that come rain or shine, KWSP members must contribute a definitive amount of cash-in to KWSP until a certain age. In this case it is (11% + 12% of last drawn salary) until age 60.

III) KWAP ROI is of no consequence to its beneficiaries; meaning, ROI good or bad... you still get the same fixed income. If KWAP get good return; to the beneficiaries... it is only a "syiok sendiri" news.

IV) KWSP ROI is slightly better news to its members because based on historical trend, when its ROI improves, the dividend declared trend higher despite members putting in the same amount of contribution.

p/s Perhaps it is coincidental, but I do notice that of the big govt investment arm.... two of them that has bad publicity are helmed by UMNO office bearers (case in point: FGV by Isa & LTH by Rezeez).

It will be a good reference point to gauge on the performance of the KWSP because the Gov't would want the civil servants to enjoy the best of benefits. We all know how much this Gov't is on the side of the cvil servants.

Please re-read what xuzen and I posted on the difference between KWAP and KWSP. The civil servants do not get 'more' because KWAP performs better, they get monthly pension amount until the day they and their spouse die. So the only party benefitting from KWAP good performance would be government budget, because then they do not have to contribute as much to KWAP for the pension payments.

I don't know what else to say to make you understand.
As to which one is better, actually it's really no point having this discussion because you can't opt for KWAP unless you become a government servant

Thank you,... you don't have to go so far with such words as wanting to make me understand,.. this is just for online chat sake,.. I merely posed some questions to discuss about KWAP ! I started with an article about KWAPin this thread, that's why I talked further about it,... I don't really have to crack my head that much just to UNDERSTAND this deeply.

Edited by adding : And certainly no further need to re-read again and again,.... biggrin.gif why delve so deeply ????????

If it is 6.4%, I don't mind being wrong with my 6.1-6.3 estimate. Ha.

P/S My son's classmates were at the same shop we had for breakfast. Paid for their breakfast due to the higher than expected 6.4%. I still have the receipt to claim back if it is not 6.4%! Ha. Just kidding.
