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: It took years of hard work and discipline but for these successful Malaysians, repaying their study loans topped their list of priorities.Datuk Abdul Latiff Abdullah, former chairman of shipping company Mitsui OSK Lines Malaysia, said he would not have been able to finish his studies without a loan from Majlis Amanah Rakyat (Mara).

He enrolled in the University of Wales in 1980 with just RM7,000 to his name, which he had pooled from his job at the Malaysian Inter­national Shipping Corporation Bhd.
