Cuepacs: Not all can work till 65

KUALA LUMPUR: The government should provide civil servants the option to retire at 60 if it plans to raise the mandatory retirement age to 65, said the Congress of Unions of Employees in the Public and Civil Services (Cuepacs).

Secretary-general Abdul Rahman Mohd Nordin said while raising the retirement age may offer certain benefits, it could pose mental and physical challenges for some.

He said some civil servants might face serious health issues if they were required to continue working into their later years.

"However, extending the retirement age to 65 is subjective and depends on individual and social factors.

true story I see a lot of retirees in my PJ house neighborhood, like nyanyuk.

birth rates there are low, so most old men and women, no need to keep mind active to take care of grandchildren

I saw one old man, don't know what he does in his garden, every morning just rake the leaves, set it on fire, and stand there look at it.

then my father in law, every morning always go out to yum cha at nearby coffee shops start talking to other old men there.

So free, dunno what they do, every day My FIL sleeping.

On my way driving around PJ, I see the same old men walking here n there under the hot sun, don't know where they are going.

one of my retiree uncles, every day sit down play internet everyday, his adult children are not married, so no grandkids. He already half nyanyuk, need hearing aids, and tongkat to walk.

probably not hahahaha
