Still no relief for group of unfortunate pensioners


AS promised by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak, Budget 2018 does indeed provide goodies for all sections of our Malaysian society – except the group of government retirees with less than 25 years of service.

I am a retired government employee drawing a sufficient amount in pension but it pains me to note that retirees with less than 25 years’ service will continue to receive very low monthly pensions.
