Don’t use EPF money to buy computers


Finance Ministry is considering a proposal by computer vendors to allow EPF contributors to withdraw their savings to buy personal computers. - File picture

I AM utterly disappointed that the Finance Ministry is considering a proposal by computer vendors to allow EPF contributors to withdraw their hard-earned retirement savings to purchase personal computers.

The vendors claim that computers are good investments. Excuse me, a computer and its software programmes are basically a tool that has a shelf life of three to five years before becoming obsolete.
