Deferment of six-month PTPTN loan repayment automatic for those without arrears

PETALING JAYA: The government's move to extend the deferment of PTPTN loans by six months will automatically extend the repayment period for all borrowers by the same length.

This will be done through the restructuring of the National Higher Education Fund Corporation (PTPTN) loans and is exclusive to borrowers without arrears prior to the deferment.
