‘BSN not among banks that made multiple BR1M payouts’

PETALING JAYA: Bank Simpanan Nasional (BSN) has clarified that it was not among those banks that had made multiple payments to some recipients of the 1Malaysia People’s Aid (BR1M).

In the 2014 Auditor-General’s Report, it was pointed out that some recipients were paid more than once due to an absence of real-time links between various banks and the BR1M database to identify individuals who had already been paid.
