Official textFrom Attorney General's Chambers, unchanged
Subject to such conditions as the Minister, with the approval of
His Majesty the Sultan and Yang Di-Pertuan, may by rules made under section 48 prescribe in respect of the levy of additional rates of commission or fees or any other matters, a person remitting money through the
Department by means of a money order may require that the amount of the order, if not paid to the payee, be repaid to him or be paid to such person other than the original payee as he may direct.
The Postmaster General shall pay into the Consolidated Fund the amount payable on a money order where a claim in respect thereof is not made within a period of one year from the date of issue of such order:
Provided that the Postmaster General may in any case where a claim is made after one year but not later than 3 years from the date of issue of the money order pay the amount of such order to the payee or remitter thereof if he is satisfied that —
there is a reasonable cause for the delay in making the claim; or
hardship would be suffered by such payee or remitter if such amount were not paid.
