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

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.

Give PTPTN borrowers time to settle loans before introducing travel ban, says AnwarBANGI: The National Higher Education Fund Corp (PTPTN) must give a reasonable amount of time before reintroducing any travel ban for those who fail to service their education loans, says PKR president Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim. You had 10 points of proposal yet could not find a better way to settle an issue. Instead still opted for the old travel ban which didn’t work effectively on the past Please... if the defaulters want to pay up, they would not default the payment in the first place. There is reason why they are called defaulters🙄 Ni money 2 repay loans but plenty 2 spare 2 travel abroad. What irony.
