Rush to EPF causes jam


Chock-a-block: Haphazard parking near the Persada International Conventional Centre caused traffic congestion in surrounding streets.

JOHOR BARU: Major roads within the city centre were congested due to an increase in the number of people heading to the Employees Provident Fund (EPF) building in Jalan Dato Dalam.

This follows permission for a special EPF withdrawal of up to RM10,000 from April 1 to 30.
