When one of my relative died without a Will, the first loya they approached is asking 10K, then the next loya 7K finally checking with tens of loya later 3K.

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	Alligator is right.  A trustworthy executor is important.  In the wrong hands, the will will not be a will, but it will enrich the party holding the document if he wants to be dishonest. Nowadays people are not simple to trust.

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	having a will is wise. however one should be very very careful of choosing the trustworthy executor, and also preferably the executor is younger or will outlive the person writing the will.  i believe at some point, one can also consider using 'joint account' in CDP, joint account allows the other surviving party to withdraw easily without going thru the lengthy legal process. there is a transfer fee when shares are transfered from single-name account to 'joint account' check CDP informations on related to this subject. below are the links http://www.cdp.com.sg/faq/transfer_faq.html http://www.cdp.com.sg/faq/transfer_faq_estate.html

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	In Singapore, if you did not leave a will upon death, then your relatives will have equal share of what you left behind should you be single.  But if you are married, then of course your wife and children will be given equal shares.  If no children, then the wife gets all.  If no wife then parents get to share, if no parents, then brothers, and if no brothers and sisters, then aunties and uncles.  The public trustee will administer for you but the process is quite troublesome and may take months.
