SUNGAI BESI: Students from the lowest tier (M1) of the M40 (or middle household income group) will be entitled to full study loans under the National Higher Education Fund Corporation (PTPTN), says Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob.

Besides announcing the loan increase from 75% to 100%, the Prime Minister said the government also agreed to provide PTPTN borrowers in the M40 group loans to purchase laptops in a move to protect and safeguard the welfare of students.
