How much to do a funeral these days ??

[Jian19]

Govt should allow us to use Medisave to pay for this

Usually if u up lorry your medisave pretty much wipe out already unless chiu accident straight up lorry

 

[y2c_whtdouwant]

Some so called “Direct Funeral option, just cremation“ - uncomplicated and the most economic funeral… Typically $1k plus only.

Got Direct cremate and scatter ashes in open sea option

Not if under c ward. Usually copay only 1.5k the rest of Medisave won’t be touched

Cremation already cost $400 plus

Wah why sia.. paid to NEA? Now this is something that I think should be fully borne by the taxpayers..

 

[AlmightyOnes]

Depending on your 'package', 3 days is generally around 12 to 15k range.

Why scatter ashes into sea? Why don't grind into powder and pour into soil, 入土为安。

Depending on your 'package', 3 days is generally around 12 to 15k range.

Not to forget many misc expenses, like angpows, extra cold packet drinks, hot drinks, etc etc.

 

[Hello_Kitty]

i did one recently about $7K for one day. Those packet drink and candy, if no eat, don't open, as the contractor will charge you money once you open it

[niefeng80]

Easily $10k-$20k

 

[Wendy Hia]

So besides settling our parents funerals we should pre settle our funeral so as not to burden our children ?

Only niche and place go buy from government. Mandai
