Business groups ask gov't for blanket zero interest loan moratorium due to pandemic


PETALING JAYA: Several business groups have asked the government for a blanket zero interest loan repayment moratorium until the end of the year or when the country has achieved herd immunity against Covid-19.

These groups want the moratorium to have an opt-out option instead of them having to request the banks, which they say banks could afford.
