Where did you read that?

From what I understand, only about 10% of the stimulus package is direct injection, while the rest are relief measures, which include allowing people to withdraw from their EPF account 2. That’s probably what the MYR 50bn is referring to

Since when life is fair sure, complain about it, but it’s not going to change the fact that the government is implementing it, and some people’s short term survival depends on it. I don’t think anyone here works for EPF and has full access to its financial standing, so speculating if it has that much cash to dispense is moot.

What else we can do about it then? Here are some of my suggestions:

We can shrug and take it as a bad investment year, and just keep earning salary contributing to it. Or we can withdraw it and put into other investment (eg: share market, unit trusts) and hope they return better.
