Expect up to 40% hike in nursery and kindie fees, parents told

KUALA LUMPUR: Parents should brace for an increase of up to 40% in nursery and kindergarten fees with the new minimum wage in effect.

The Putrajaya Nursery and Kindergarten Operator Association (Puspajaya) said while it supported the increase of the minimum wage to RM1,500, parents should also understand the need to increase fees in line with the rise in operating costs.
