DESPITE the attractive discounts offered in Budget 2023 to settle their loans in full, National Higher Education Fund (PTPTN) borrowers said they are not able to take up the incentives.

They told The Malaysian Insight they would rather stick to monthly payments, owing to the financial position they are in, coupled with the fear of an economic downturn “just around the corner”.
