KUALA LUMPUR: The government’s decision to allow Employees Provident Fund (EPF) withdrawals is a welcome relief for those who are facing difficulties during these trying times, say Umno delegates.

Umno Youth chief Datuk Dr Asyraf Wajdi Dusuki said the wing had been consistent in its demand to allow EPF withdrawals despite being at the receiving end of brickbats.
