Lim Guan Eng says PTPTN had presented a formula which was approved by the Finance Ministry.

Lim , in a statement today, said PTPTN had presented a formula which was approved by the Finance Ministry.

" will result in the government having to bear additional loans on top of existing ones borne by the government to finance the PTPTN loans.Lim hoped that this formula would still be fulfilled despite the additional loan obligations that would be incurred by the government.It is understood that the plan had indeed been presented to the Harapan cabinet but it is unclear when it was approved.
