Should I cancel my CPF Dependant Protection Scheme (DPS) as I already have the Aviva Group Term Life (GTL) for MINDEF and MHA?

I have done my calculations. The amount I am paying over the entire duration for CPF DPS, which gives me coverage of $46k, if channelled over into Aviva's GTL, will give me coverage of almost x5 times more at $220k. Also, CPF DPS only covers up till the age of 59, but Aviva's GTL stretches to age 65. Should I make this switch? Anybody with prior experiences to share?

The premiums paid for the coverage is not worth once you hit age 45. You may wish to drop it and get private insurance as term premiums have progressively decreased, especially for death coverage.

The bad thing is we cannot buy more even if we want to.
