EPF i-Akaun

Since EPF go online years ago, many people are disappointed by the way the website was maintained and updated. However, as time goes by, EPF had done a face-lift to its website. If you noticed, I could say that EPF website nowadays is very informative, convenient, well-organized. 

I know, I know, maybe you are saying: “Is it really so goooood ???”
The fact is, I am not a EPF staff, then why I need to praise them?

From now onwards, there will be an EPF series written in this blog.
In this 1st series, I would like to touch on i-Akaun by EPF.

What is i-Akaun?
