EFP ...Only Invest in Equities, Funds, etc ? ... ZERO holdings in Govn Bonds and Treasuries ??? Telling .. " Half Truths " ... Donkey Stock !!! Even with Declining Birth Rates ... NOW HAPPENING to ALL COUNTRIES in the WORLD ( Except POOR nations ) ..... So what is it an ISSUE to Malaysia ONLY ? Imagine Thailand HAS NO "EPF"... Neither has Indonesia . This 2 nations combined population is 360 + 80 = 440 Million. Compared to Malaysia of 35 million only. Which country will have serious Hardship if Recession Hit World economy ?

Don't forget the huge foreign immigrant workers don't contribute to EPF. Big amount of money repatriate out of Malaysia every month by the foreign workers.
EPF experience CASH FLOW problem and could gets worse a few years down the road
:(

Maybe forcing foreign immigrant worker to contribute to a savings fund could works, thats really a huge leaking hole for Ringgit

I don't know why our government don't make it mandatory for foreign workers to contribute to EPF! It benefit us tremendously! This will stop outflow of foreign workers salary back to their countries! And EPF can invest further! And also stop foreign workers from constantly changing their identity! Yes, foreign workers can easily change their identity if you don't know about this!

@Tobby
Foreign worker's EPF contribution is negligible amount. Foreign workers sending money back home is in billions of ringgit each month. I don't know how many of them are here but not less than three(3) million ( source various news reports).
If all of them send back assuming RM500, outflow is RM1.5 Billion (conservative amount) per month.
Foreign workers tracking is easy but enforcements are doing a intentional sloppy work for reasons whihc you can predict well.

I say stop taking foreign workers and employ locals. Money stays and circulate within country.

If employers cannot afford, shutdown the business and put their money under the pillow.

@OnTime, the demand of rm3k minimum pay by locals can only granted if local employees can double their productivity? Can local employees afford?????? Perhaps foreign workers can....because they dont have ibu sakit lah, anak sakit lah, bapa mati, uncle mati, isteri beranak, anak sekolah, etc etc, etc. Now you know why Employers prefer to hire foreign banglas, burmese, etc.

Greedy pigs as employers, of course, will use age old excuses to support their need for slave foreign workers. Hope they get Topglove Bangla workers who exposes them until cannot get up. The only reason they like foreign workers is they can treat them like slaves for pittance.
Malay politicians are highly corrupted and sttuupid for they cannot realise how the employers are banging their rear end at the expense of own citizen and well being.

As i say earlier....those low income holding small amount in EPF like say Rm 30k & below...it is better to allow them withdraw & try their luck in cash small business, grabs, panda, shopee, lazada, lalamoves etc.

They just have to invest in vehicles & handphones and they can earn more than Rm 4k a month mah!
