（吉隆坡23日讯/独家报导）大马老龄组织联盟（MCOA）主席谢德荣认同，国内多数长者没有足够的医疗保险，而政府可以考虑提供一令吉对一令吉配对基金，来鼓励长者投保。 他说，很多长者现在都没有足够的退休金，更遑论支付保险。 “不只是医疗保险，长者在年老和需要被抚养时，获得长期护理也很重要。” 谢德荣 他举例，在韩国和日本，人们在工作后会扣除薪资支付保费，而政府都会补贴保险。 “为鼓励长者为医保和长期护理做好储蓄，政府可以考虑提供配对基金，也就是受保人每拿出一令吉，政府也会配对相同金额。” 谢德荣是今日接受《中国报》询问，针对成人护理品牌添宁（TENA）推出的2023年大马人口老龄化报告，显示59%受访长者，根本没有准备好应对任何的医疗需求一事，作出回应。 他也说，政府也可以鼓励长者保持活跃，让他们尽可能长时间维持健康体魄，这样就能有效减缓政府和个人的医疗保健成本。 他强调，储蓄是每个人开始工作时就要做的事，确保拥有足够的退休金是自己的责任，长者们必须确保他们在退休时能够享受财务自由，而不是依赖政府和家人。 “高昂的生活成本，已经让包括我们孩子在内的多数人难以养家糊口，所以我们不能强迫他们供养我们。 “身体健康的长者仍有赚钱养活自己的能力，保持健康和活跃才是长者们的出路。”
