Mara offers to adjust loan repayments for flood victims

Minister Mahdzir Khalid says affected businesses will also be exempted from rental payment for a specified period.

Mahdzir Khalid said this will help businessmen to re-start their operations.
PETALING JAYA:
Mara has announced a flexible loan repayment plan and rental exemption for businesses affected by the floods.

Rural development minister Mahdzir Khalid said as the victims had suffered severe hardship and losses, no action would be taken against those who fail to repay their loans at the moment.

“Mara will be flexible about this and allow the rescheduling of loans.

“Businesses will also be exempted from rental payments due to the losses suffered from the floods.”

Mahdzir hoped these initiatives would ease the burden faced by businesses and allow them to use the additional cash to restart their operations.

Those affected can call Mara’s state or district offices or browse mara.gov.my for more information on the assistance.
