Personal Medical / Critical Illness
Protection
Do you remember details?

Do you know if it is suitable for your current situation?
Life Insurance Policy
You should consider if the followings are true / what you want;

1 Breadwinner
Backbone of your family's economy

Death is catastrophic to family finance

2 Eliminate Debts
Entrepreneurship accumulates debts

Debts can transfer to family should you passed away

3 Family Legacy
Want to keep company in family's control

Helps buy back company shares


Consequences of Not Having Insurance
1 Who Wants to Bear Risks?
No / Inadequate Insurance = YOU are your own Insurance Policy!

2 Breaking the Law Directly.


You don't want to break the law, do you?

3 Leaving your Family with No Protections


A simple medical operation / disease can cripple your family's finance.

4 Debts Transffered to your Loved Ones.


No coverage for business debts = potential transferal of debts to family should you
have deceased.
