KUALA LUMPUR – Bank Simpanan Nasional (BSN) has announced financial relief measures for customers affected by the floods which are plaguing several states.

The plan entails deferred payments of financing instalments up to six months for eligible customers.

Chief operating officer Kameel Abdul Halim said the “Bantuan Banjir” was created to ease the burden of flood-hit customers.

He said the bank was aware of the difficulties caused by heavy rains and unexpected floods, especially in the East Coast states as many houses, vehicles and businesses were severely damaged, affecting the daily affairs and source of income of customers.

“We understand that some customers require a postponement in performing their financial responsibilities during critical times like these.

“The bank will process and evaluate each request according to their respective circumstances,” he said in a statement today.
