Hello Grasshoppa, A few weeks ago when I wrote about i-Saraan, I wanted to compare both Private Retirement Scheme (PRS) & EPF i-Saraan for your better understanding. 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.

Hello Grasshoppa, I have an upcoming trip to Thailand which will be my first trip since the pandemic started.
