To actually solve the core issue, my alternative and unorthodox suggestion is the creation of an Account 3 in the EPF funds for all newborn Malaysians whose minimum funds will be wholly paid out by the Government progressively as the parents meet certain goals in raising that next generation.
Recently there have been quite a number of news updates on EPF. It was reported that they want to handle the current retirement sufficiency and livelihood balance with 2 proposals which some are calling the silver bullet for this issue.
For the record, I am not in favour of making the minimum wage mandatory for internships. And from a pure support perspective on the issue, the fact that public opinion is spilt doesn't make it realistic to do so. The economic argument against is sound while the exploitation argument is also sound. It's not likely you can or should make mandatory the current minimum wage (RM1500) for interns at this point nor is it fair to continue to allow companies to not provide any wages and/or provide minimal wages for internships.
