PKR veep slams Hadi for misleading public over govt's pension plans


PETALING JAYA: PKR vice-president Nik Nazmi Nik Ahmad has hit out at PAS president Tan Sri Abdul Hadi Awang for allegedly misleading the public by saying that the government was planning to abolish pensions for civil servants.

The PKR vice-president, who is also the Natural Resources and Environmental Sustainability Minister, said in reality the government's proposal was to only review the benefits of all existing pension schemes and to explore options for hiring new civil servants with new retirement benefits such as the Employees Provident Fund (EPF).
