Entrepreneur Development and Cooperatives deputy minister Datuk Mas Ermieyati Samsudin said so far only 14 applications had been received, with seven of them having been approved until last Feb 10, involving a total financing of RM21,000 under the Tabung Ekonomi Kumpulan Usaha Niaga . She cited an example of a student at the Masjid Tanah Community College here who was able to earn between RM40and RM500 a month selling burger.
Mas Ermieyati said she was aware of some parents and guardians do not allow their children who are studying to apply for the loan and as such, MEDAC will hold a dialogue session with the parents and students to explain the matter.
