This is the reason why a lot of people refuse to pump more money inside EPF. Sure, the dividend is good.

But you have no idea for the next 20-30 years what kind of shitty things the government will do.

Most of the uncle uncle here can talk big because they are near to their retirement age.

So they have no problem of keep pumping money inside there.

For me, I don't trust the gov and I don't trust the EPF.

Btw, I disagree increase retirement age to 65 years old.

We don't need to follow USA route where they can withdraw their full social security benefit at 67 years old.

A lot of people that retired after 1 year from 67 years old banyak yang mati. Dapat merasa guna duit setahun je

Actuali u ppl missed d pt. Most Msians x even retire so to speak esp at 60 yo. Here extend another 5 years kasi org cari makan, apa salah? Or u rather employer terminate their servis at 60 yo?

The fact is oso tarak org paksa u kerja. Tak suka boleh resign anytime. 25 yo ke 35 yo ke 45 yo ke… or lay flat after kolej pun bole … bagi org yg suka kerja nak kerja terpaksa kerja Kerjaaaa ….itu saja i think d mesej  icon_rolleyes.gif

Dude, increasing retirement age is indirectly affect KWSP. Elok elok you can withdraw at 60, they can change the rule and it affects a lot of people.
