MCSTGuru would like to kick off the third quarter of 2020 with an online seminar. For many of us, Covid-19 has put much of our plans on hold. Nevertheless, much of the obligations held by MCSTs still need to continue.

In this fourth segment of our Seminar Series, we deal with the topics of recovery of arrears and compliance with PDPA. Both topics have received some degree of attention in the past few months.

We hope this Seminar will shed some light on the issues involved.
