PETALING JAYA: With a new possible source of disposable cash in EPF’s to-be-announced Account 3, Malaysians are split between using the money to settle current financial shortcomings or saving it for the future.

A business manager who wanted to be known only as Kamarul, said he would look into the possibility of using withdrawals from Account 3 to renovate his newly purchased house.
