Retire age at 60??

Government to study longer term for civil servants
By PAUL CHOO
PUTRAJAYA: The Government will study extending the retirement age of civil servants to 60.
Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi said the current retirement age of 56 was too low for one to retire.
He said the longer life span and better health enjoyed by Malaysians now should also be taken into account.


i cut the news above from thestar.com.my, i believe it's a good effort, but i hope gov do give options to the civil servants tht will benefit both.


from my point of view, indirectly this actually promote civil servants to practise healthy lifestyle and diet, which in the end improve the malaysian life quality, because in order to work until the age of 60 without decreasing the level of efficiency and effectiveness, one need to be physically and mentally fit.


what do u think?
