I am thinking to request to increase from 11% to 16%, save for the future provided epf rate is very nice.
What do you guys think?
As a salaried employee, you have the choice of contributing more for better savings. You or your employer (or both), may voluntarily contribute at a rate exceeding the statutory rate as long as you meet the requirements.

first question you should ask yourself...
does your lifestyle have a higher chance to live past 55/60 years old?
if no then just YOLO.
like smoke/drink/ketum/boba tea/KFC/Texas/Mcd everyday.

Depends on you. If you wants to keep long term passive investment with safe and good returns, can put in more. If you want to have more cash for other investment, you probably want to have more liquiditybin your hands. But if you have nowhere else better to put, then it's a good option.

You can do self contribution directly from most banks online to your EPF account. Zero hassle. One year max rm60k. Can transfer one shot.

Depends on what stage in life you are. EPF is a very good choice.
The only drawback is, it is not easy to withdraw in case of emergencies.
