It's all about Syariah.  If you choose not to be under this scheme, then you do not partake in the performance of the Fund. Then their obligation is only 2.5% as far as they are concerned.

Meaning everyone irrespective of race and religion is FORCED to accept Islamic principles. 

This is Malaysian fair and equitable principles.

McFD2R Geez. Don't be so negative about Islamic product. Did you know that maybank Islamic efd 1 month beats all normal efd by margin of 0.1%? Conventional efd is 3.15% while the Islamic efd is 3.25%.Islamic product is not always bad. Is just different name for same concept.

You are forgetting that the other act said conventional epf still can give minimum of 2.5% same with the new act which said Islamic epf also give minimum 2.5%

are you cashing out max?

Nobody rob your money.

Conventional EPF account still running, not the like straight away give you 2.5% next year.

If non-syariah portfolio stocks are performing, then conventional account may get higher dividend as well.

Please don't throw accusation simply. It may be deemed defamation.

For now, probably so. But if in the event, the difference >1% consistently, that does make a difference especially when it is compounded every year till 55, or eventually 60. Hence my view is that all investments by KWSP should be wholly and collectively made in the fair interest of all contributors and divided equally and proportionately. Because unlike Banks, where we can have choices to decide whether to take up their products or not based on the T&C, EPF contributions are mandatory. We do not get a say on where and how they invest, and nothing to govern the returns if any, except for the minimum 2.5%. As such, all funds that are generating returns should be fairly distributed.

Ok lah, I think I've emphasized my points that it becomes repetitive. I do that some times 
That is very true for those relying on their savings and EPF funds for living expenses after retirement.
I would not dispute that. However, if this is passed, does that means Muslims contributors MUST place in Islamic account, while others can choose? And then imagine if EPF declares that conventional accounts yields higher dividend, whether it's 0.1% or 1% than the Islamic account. Would those placing in Islamic accounts be making a big fuss about it then, especially here in Malaysia? I think they would. Thus, from that perspective, I don't foresee EPF aka the Govt would be declaring a lower dividend for the Islamic accounts. KWSP were, are and will continue to be politically motivated or influenced in their management.

Guess is because people interpret that if you don't choose syariah, you will get 2.5%. The drop of 6.x% to 2.5% causes a lot of people to get angry. But like you said, minimum epf can give is 2.5%. That's not the maximum which epf will give. It's the minimum.

Bro, they telling you that epf conventional and Islamic pays minimum 2.5%

Bro if you are worried about transfer of wealth, make the switch. Then if it really happen, they have no excuse not to give you 6.x% since you make the switch. Non Muslim can switch to syariah also. Not limited to Muslim only.

May be someone got crystal ball that we don't have. 

The amendment just want to create a syariah compliance account, and investing in Syariah compliance investment. But somehow, all sort of unfounded prediction being made by people who got crystal ball, from give only 2.5% to which is higher or lower.

If the other one is higher, just opt the account to it[[COLOR=blue], as simple as that.

Just think of it as donation. Once your money is enough, one can withdraw and dump into overseas account. Take a vacation and open account at the same time.Then come back malaysia TT out the money
