‘Suggestion not made by us’


Bank Negara deputy governor Adnan Zaylani Mohamad Zahid said CCRIS contains information on overdue payments and is not a system aimed at blacklisting loan applicants.

PETALING JAYA: A suggestion to bring back the travel ban for National Higher Education Fund Corporation (PTPTN) loan defaulters was not made by the corporation itself.

PTPTN chairman Wan Saiful Wan Jan said the suggestion was actually raised by a member of the audience during a briefing session on the corporation’s ongoing public consultation exercise.
