Government accepts BN’s demand to amend EPF withdrawal and moratorium extension, says Shahidan

The Perikatan Nasional government accepted the demands made by Barisan Nasional (BN) to approve a one-time withdrawal from Account 1 of the Employee Provident Fund (EPF) and an extension of the loan moratorium for all, said Shahidan Kassim.

The president of the Perikatan Nasional Backbenchers’ Club (PNBBC) said that Finance Minister Tengku Zafrul Tengku Abdul Aziz agreed to amend his 2021 Budget after strong calls by allies and rivals in Dewan Rakyat for changes to be made to gain support for budget. .
