Sarawak student disqualified from loan repayment initiative for repaying too early

SIBU: A university student is dismayed that he has been excluded from the Yayasan Sarawak (YS) PTPTN loan repayment incentive for paying almost half of his National Higher Education Fund Corporation (PTPTN) loan too early.

Under the incentive, the state government will subsidise 30% of the balance for graduates who have already paid at least 30% of their loans. It does this through Yayasan Sarawak.
