PETALING JAYA: Malaysians are not in favour of increasing the retirement age from the existing 60 to 65. A recent poll conducted by The Star Online found that 66% of the 3,780 participants voted "no" to increasing the retirement age. Others cited medical reasons for voting against the increase of retirement age. Rohani refuted media reports saying that the Government was planning to raise the retirement age. It was reported that although the Government had received suggestions to raise the retirement age to 65, it had to study the viability of the move.
