Deputy Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin today said it is "fair" for the National Higher Education Fund (PTPTN) to freeze loans for Universiti Selangor students as it is only responding to PKR's policy proposal.
"(PTPTN) did not cancel all loans, but temporarily halted it so they can review it first. That's fair.
"If the (Selangor) MB says there's no need for students to take the loans, then PTPTN need not give out the loans," he told reporters.
Asked if he felt it was responsible for the agency to do so without informing the Selangor government-owned university, he said: "Your question is very malicious. I think all the other media here know it's not what I mean."
Pressed on the matter further, Muhyiddin brushed the question aside, saying: "Never mind, they are studying it."
