Here are 5 ways to solve the PTPTN problem.

Like most parents in Malaysia, the issue surrounding the National Higher Education Fund Corporation is very close to our hearts.I am surprised that the PTPTN issue is considered “difficult” to solve. Let me give my two cents’ worth.

I assume students will take one or two years to secure solid jobs and work as best as they can to make ends meet. They will probably get married and buy their first small vehicle and rent their first rooms. Secondly, PTPTN should forego any loans by borrowers who have suffered chronic illness, accidents and even deaths so as not to burden the families in a double header problem. These families are left with a hurtful reminder. As such, future borrowers must obtain a life insurance of about 15-20 years span to be included in the loan amount.

PTPTN can help the country by allowing up to 25% off the loans of the students to be deducted if they were to prove community work of up to 1,000 hours at RM5 per hour. Thus, a maximum amount of RM5,000 can be deducted from the loan amount.

Syed Saddiq rejects any travel ban on PTPTN loan defaultersThe youth and sports minister says other ways must be found to ease PTPTN's burden and problems faced by graduates earning low incomes. No money to pay loan, yet still got money to travel. WTF 😂 No need to give excuses. Must ensure those who owe money to pay up. Let’s do it in a sensible way. Work out a repayment program with those owing money through deduction from the salary like taxes. They are in good jobs + earning money because of their education on borrowed money.

PTPTN chair: Personally, I’m also ‘uncomfortable’ with travel banWan Saiful came under fire after the fund sought feedback to a proposal to bring back the blacklist. Those who can afford to pay but decide to not pay should be punished. If not, PTPTN can never collect. Then why made the press conference with a UMNO supporter lady beside you.. If travel to overseas to continue to study...I think it's OK. ..but when you don't pay but want to go overseas for holiday...I think something fishy here
