Why don't credit the sum into those elderly bank account? Isn't purpose of CDC voucher was to help the local F&b, retails during COVID periods?

CDC voucher outlive its purpose imo. Cash would be better for to help the elderly.

Simple lor. They want to restrict what and where you can spend on. If give cash then confirm many people will just cash out and go JB.

yup its a sweet to alleviate the GST pain, but it's also directed towards increasing domestic consumption particularly to the neighbourhood retail which are suffering badly from double whammy of the online and supermarket superstores.

Also understand that some go line up for the physical vouchers so that other family members can use them up too or distribute to them equally

Its per household, not per pax. 

Unless the family members in that household dun bother who gets it in that household, otherwise which account to be credited? Cash may not be used appropriately ie buy alcohol, ciggies, toto/4d etc instead of daily defined necessities. 

The elderly in my clan happy with vouchers vs digital. Say easy for them. Can't speak for the others. 

Stay safe 

Cheers

Credit into bank account means there is no control of how it is spent.

CDC voucher has been there pre-COVID but it was not widely accepted then.

It is for this group of elderly.

A lot of hawker store in my estate hawker accepts CDC voucher before COVID.
