Hah!
Good that they're implementing these things then

A lot of hypocrites in Malaysia, complain about a corrupt government then turn around and do things like this
Taking a loan and not repaying on purpose, what's the difference from swindling money?

it's a good move...
if borrow loan, then should pay back...don't take things for granted

I don't think it crosses their head when they decided not to repay. Not looking at the whole picture until things escalated and shit hits the fan.. 
Younger generations would have made to "pay" for all these.
 

There's a forumer here who successfully converted to S'porean and mention of not wanting to pay PTPTN.

It's his/her choice. Might have to think if there's need to ever set foot in Malaysia or risk getting his comeuppance eventually.
News on PTPTN

Penny wise pound foolish. By the way, how much the PTPTN loan normally? So nice first class got discount some more.

yeah i worked in sg before but the officer couldn't have known...i was like heading to the ALL PASSPORT queue like a normal tourist and the officer just directed me to the automated gate. maybe they have upgraded their system and we are like the "white mouse" trying out their new upgrade?

Doesnt ptptn have guarantors? Cant they go after parents if one of their kids dont pay?

I've heard of this anecdotally but it's first time happening to someone I know, so got carried away a wee bit.
Anyway, I am glad they are doing something/initiating to collect back the money they loaned out.
There are few possibilities - don't think she doesn't has the money to pay since the monthly payment is pretty affordable.
1. Being ignorant
2. Heck care about the system
3. The usual hide and seek from the creditor - pay later
This is not as bad as being blocked at the checkpoints/airports but yeah the authority is doing it in full force which is commendable.

Few years back, I have another colleague (now ex-colleague) who told us it's stupid to pay back PTPTN . Just imagine someone really needed the money to further their studies and there's nothing left in the coffer.

now even foreigners can use the automated gates? i just came back from singapore for vacation and when i was passing through immigration the officer directed me to the automated gate which i thought was for singapore pr / citizen only. and i managed to pass through without surrendering the departure card.

as far as i know, those with working pass are able to use the automated gates...
not sure bout tourists though...

hi all, quick question. When you are on EP and changed new job, new employer apply a new EP for you, would you FIN number change as well? Or remain the old FIN number?
Thanks a lot.

Same FIN number. Why change job?

When you borrow, you pay lo. Not like even Rm50 also cannot afford to pay, that's like a mere S$16 only.

Save few cups of "atas" coffee and you can pay.

Mine is like RM300/month leh... Total up if fully paid by installment will be around 80k. But my mum pay for me monthly by force. Then I bank in back to her She very worry I cannot exit MY at immigration.

Hi guys, if i buy electronic item here at SG, just 1 unit and bring back Malaysia by bus, will I get tax at JB Custom side? Let's say I dint remove the item from box, but box have been unwrap.
