4. Then give us an option to manage our own money for those who can and want to
2. Not really. Developed countries govt securities are the most liquid stuff in this world, other than cash of course. Yes even if its 30 years, 50 years, 99 years more to maturity.

3. True. Dont depend on CPF anymore. Besides, its likely insufficient. everyone really needs a supplemental retirement plan outside of CPF.

4. true but how to determine who gets such option? very much easier said than done. Ask you send statements for your past 10 years investment track record as proof? Then those who cant qualify to manage their own CPF money, as usual make noise again say govt dont wanna return them their money
