Travel ban is betrayal, Afif tells PTPTN chief
Penang executive councillor Dr Afif Bahardin trained his guns on National Higher Education Fund Corporation (PTPTN) chairperson Wan Saiful Wan Jan after it was revealed that loan defaulters might be slapped with another travel ban.
The PKR assemblyperson described the proposed ban as betraying Pakatan Harapan's struggle prior to the last general election.
"I am of the opinion that if Wan Saiful is unable to defend Harapan's promise, it is time for him to consider his position in PTPTN as the chairperson of the corporation," Afif said in a statement.
Earlier, Education Minister Maszlee Malik explained that the proposal to reimpose the travel ban did not originate from PTPTN but from stakeholders who met with the corporation.
