EPF withdrawals helped to save my family


MOST Malaysians, I believe, are in the same boat that I am: I do not own property and am merely renting – not all of us are lucky enough to earn enough to buy.

I lost my job as head of security at a shopping mall when the Covid-19 pandemic hit our shores last year. I was making about RM3, 000 a month at that job, while my wife earned about RM1, 800. We have three children and live in Old Klang Road, Kuala Lumpur.
