BANGI: The National Higher Education Fund Corp (PTPTN) must give a reasonable amount of time before reintroducing any travel ban for those who fail to service their education loans, says PKR president Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim. 

He agreed that some leeway should be given, as some of the defaulters have yet to get a job.
