A steady place to read, record, and organise your retirement papers
Retiraq runs small-group sessions and weekly reading courses in Georgetown, Penang, designed for households who want to put their documents in order and work through publicly available pension information at their own pace. Everything we do is organisational and educational — no advice, just clarity.
Our Sessions
Three ways to get your records in order
Each session is run as a structured, calm activity with a small number of participants. The focus is always on filing, labelling, and reading — not on individual financial advice.
One-Day Personal Records Organisation Session
A guided one-day session in small groups, dedicated to setting up a clear filing system for identification, account statements, contribution records, and beneficiary nomination receipts. Participants leave with a labelled folder structure and a personal records map.
- Labelled folder structure for your household
- Personal records map you keep and update
- Reading list of official publications
- Organisational only — no individual advice
Six-Session Retirement Literacy Course
A six-week reading group with a discussion leader covering how the national retirement system is publicly described, how official statements are formatted, and what public-source materials are available for further reading. Course materials are included.
- Six weekly sessions, small group
- Publicly available materials only
- Course materials included in fee
- No individual advice provided
Yearly Records Refresh Programme for Couples
A year-long programme for couples keeping household records together. Includes an initial in-home setup session, three follow-up sessions, and an annual review. Couples receive a structured family records folder at year-end, intended as a handover document for future reference.
- Initial in-home setup session
- Three follow-up sessions across the year
- Structured family records folder
- Annual review included
Why Retiraq
What makes the Retiraq approach different
Organised around your documents
Every session is structured around the real papers households accumulate — not abstract concepts. You leave with a filing system that matches what you already have.
Small, unhurried groups
Sessions are kept small so that each participant can work at a comfortable pace. There is no rush, and the discussion leader takes questions as they arise.
Only publicly available materials
The literacy course draws exclusively from publicly available official sources. Participants can verify and revisit every item covered long after the session ends.
Couples programme includes home visits
The yearly programme begins with a session at your home, so the filing system is built around the actual space where your records are kept.
Educational and organisational only
Retiraq does not provide financial or legal advice. The scope is clear: labelling, filing, reading, and recording. Participants know exactly what they are signing up for.
Based in Georgetown, Penang
Sessions are held at our Georgetown address — a quiet, accessible space in the heart of Penang. Easy to reach by public transport or on foot from the ferry terminal.
