As part of the plan of government to boost up Malaysia's economy, Deputy Prime Minister cum Minister of Finance announced a series of "Economy Booster Plans" on Nov'08.
One of the plans is to reduce the current EPF contribution of employee from 11% to 8%. A total reduction of 3%. Sounds great isn't it?
Even our Minister of Finance II thinks that this is a great move and majority of the EPF contributors would like it!

So, our government decided to set 8% employee contribution rate as default for our monthly contribution. For those MINORITY that are stupid enough and do not want this EXTRA CASH. They have to fill in KWSP17A(AHL)-Khas form and submit backto KWSP before 1st of Jan'09 to remain the contribution rate to 11% per month.
FYI. The form is out for grabs on 1-Dec'08, you have exactly ONE month only to fill up and submit.
That's why so many MINORITY rushing to KWSP to fill up forms.
