The thing is, even if wanted to withdrawal, we can’t withdrawal out. And it is by law , EPF is mandatory for employees in Malaysia. Basically, like it or not, they can do whatever they want

The problem is the top contributors are mostly retiree or >1 mil and can withdraw anytime. The moment they feel like it's not worth to leave their money in EPF (low interest), there will be a mass withdrawal.

with assumption still can get 5 or 6% interest rate? with the market condition like this now...i wonder if it's more logical to lower the expectation to minimum 2.5% interest...which is still better than holding stocks return which could be in negative range...and that makes me wonder...if ePF has stakes in stocks...and if stocks tanking and in negative range..how can epf payout dividend?

As long as there's steady contribution from new/existing members, they can afford the dividend payout.

Can over RM1m, no force withdraw. You can voluntarily withdraw any excess amount over RM1m any time.
