[Aaron carter]

Dear CPF Member,

As CPF turns 70 this year (yes, we’re older than Singapore!), take a moment to look back at this unique part of our national story.After all, your CPF is part of your story too. We’ve been growing and evolving alongside you through life’s important moments, and we look forward to supporting future generations of Singaporeans with their housing, healthcare and retirement needs too.

Check out our commemorative e-book — Save and Sound — with a special look at our transformation over the years. Featuring interviews with past and present political office holders, CPF employees, partners, and CPF members, it highlights behind-the-scenes perspectives on CPF’s journey, and how it has supported Singapore’s growth and will continue meeting your changing needs.

Giveaway! What would retirement be like 70 years from now?

Retirement planning, reimagined by you

The way we plan for retirement has evolved over the years, with more tools and resources than ever to help us plan for our future with less ‘guesswork’. With new tech available (including GenAI), visualising your retirement has never been easier!

- What might retirement lifestyles look like to you in 70 years
- How would CPF continue to support future generations?
- How is today’s technology (including CPF's latest PLAN with CPF platform) helping you prepare for your own future?

"What might retirement lifestyles look like to you in 70 years"?

Most Sinkies won't be around in 70 years time. So who gives a fuck about how the future generation will be short changed by CPF in time to come? So free to pen our thoughts on this stupid topic just to get a free umbrella?

Punishing workers for getting old’: how South Korea’s wage system impoverishes the elderly​

Insurance worker G Young Soo started working at his company at 23, and spent more than three decades climbing the ranks to become a branch director. Now approaching his 60th birthday, Young Soo’s employer has systematically stripped away his salary.

As part of South Korea’s “peak wage” system, Young Soo’s wages were cut by 20% when he turned 56, and by a further 10% each year after that. By the time he is forced to retire next year, he will earn just 52% of what he made at 55, despite the same workload and hours.

“It is not justified,” he said, calling the practice age-based “discrimination”.
