The retirement age in Malaysia is when you reached your 56 year!What is "real and best" retirement age?
Working for a living like in Malaysia can start as early for a 18 year old and retires when he/she reached his/her 56th birthday. Some people say,they have worked very hard all these years and when they reached 56 years old it is time they rest and enjoy their retirement.Others say,at 56 years old,they still have many more good years to work and earn their salary or remunerations. What is your personal plan-do you want to relax and enjoy your retirement or want to continue working till your body or energy permits? Maybe those living out of Malaysia have more suitable suggestions?

- It's purely up to the individual actually. It depends on so much, like the person's energy level, their individual goals/motivation, physical health,ect. Studies show, for many, even after "retirement" PT work helps keep the mind healthy & alert, having a little more of a structured routine, a sense of financial sercurity. All these things can strongly relate to physical health too, by having a positive mental outlook/sense of purpose I intend on still working PT all my life until I'm completely unable [if I really do get that way] *Even if I got rich in stocks or won lotto, I'd still work PT. To me it's a lot more than about the money
- I want to continue because I don't want to feel lonely at home. If the Prime Minister can work until 80, why can't we ? He is 100 times more stressed than we are. Therefore, hopefully the government would consider just letting you work and no need to sign contract. May be the early retirement plan can be pushed up too. May be those entering government service need not be too young. As long as I am healthy and I still can work, why can't I ? Not everybody has something to look forward to in retirement. Some have nobody; nothing. My as well let them work. You need to ask fellow Malaysians because they are the one who know what's best. Not everything from outside is good.
