Pension Reforms For Meaningful Retirement

 By 2044, Malaysia will become an aged nation with more than 14% of its population over the age of 65. However, EPF data point to the troubling reality that many Malaysians are at risk of old-age poverty. Are we doing enough to ensure that each generation is able to achieve a meaningful retirement? We discuss policies that need to be considered with Chai Sen Tyng of the Malaysian Research Institute on Ageing (myAgeing), at Universiti Putra Malaysia.
