EPF clarifies ruling on nomination


THE Employees Provident Fund refers to the letter “EPF ruling a surprise for foreigner” (The Star, Jan 14) regarding nomination for foreign EPF members and would like to thank her for her feedback.

For public information, foreigners who are employed in Malaysia are permitted to contribute to the EPF but their contribution is made entirely on a voluntary basis, unlike Malaysians who are required by law to contribute.
