As both are considered voluntary contribution schemes, which is a better choice for you? Below I have listed some of the differences between both PRS & i-Saraan: The overall […]
Hello Grasshoppa, Recently I stumbled upon i-Saraan when I was in the KWSP office to run an errand. Even though it was introduced a while ago, the scheme seems less popular, or perhaps it is just something I am unaware of. What Is i-Saraan? It is a voluntary contribution program with a retirement incentive for […]
Hello Grasshoppa, This marks my first international travel post-pandemic & I am really happy that I am able to travel back to my second home after being stuck in Malaysia for 2 years.
