Pemulih's loan moratorium may offer breathing room but should be used with caution, says economist

PETALING JAYA: As the announcement of a six-month loan moratorium under the Pemulih aid package has given the people some economic breathing room, experts caution that the public should be cautious in utilising such an option.

Prominent economist Datuk Dr Zakariah Abdul Rashid said borrowers who are servicing their loans should be mindful that the moratorium would lengthen the repayment period.
