100,000 - life insurance,
100,000 - pa,
100,000 - diagnosis major illnesses.
10,000 - total & permanent disability.

are you married btw?
if you are single, i suggest maybe you can reduce
amount issured for life & major illness to around 30K-50K each
while on the other hand get a much better medical card
as we know medical expenses is gettting higher each day

1. my salary is about 2400 - 2700 (after deduct the epf + part time allowance). Hopefully will be increase after march.

My monthly saving is like +-200 (if i pay RM200 for the insurance)

2. of course, i have parent and they are the only person that need my financial help.

3. i am doing programming and company actually but the term life and group pa for me. But i can depend on this.

4. my worries is, i have no money to buy house.

1. i think a plan within RM120-RM150/month with a good medical + hospitalisation will benifit you i guess.

2. Pls remember to ask ur agent to include the PAYOR ( continuous guranteed ) in case
touch wood, anything happen the plan will go on free for life.

3. the life & pa can reduce, because atm you alreaddy have coverage from ur company

4. Dont worry about no money buying a house, as because ur salary wont fix at RM2400 - RM2700
in couple of years i think you should be alright . . .

life insurance objective is to provide you protection but the choice is yours.

life insurance is to provide your dependent coverage
it's only covered when someone is death or diagnose with TPD ( total permenant disability

for personal coverage it's important to have a medical card/crictical illness as we know the medical bills are sky high nowdays

dont get mix up


the min is guaranteed. However, the max is not. Why? Because it is a livestment link, it can gove you more return compare to Life insurance(fixed 4~5%). U wan more, then u need to take the risk.

Investment-link does not guaranteed any percentage of return. . . normally insurance company project a lower returns compare to the actual
fund performance to the clients. Only endowment plan provide guaranteed returns for 3-4% + dividen declare on yearly basis depending on company performance.

Worst case senario A: If Samy Velu is to be Malaysia PM tmr, RM1 per unit drop till RM0.5 cents, initially your savings/investment from
RM10,000 will be RM5,000. Dont worry will not happen sweat.gif

Senario B: Over a 3-5 years period of time, if the unit price increase from RM1 per unit to RM1.50, initially you gain 50% from ur savings/investment thumbup.gif
