Unused MyKad for Sabah directive fake, says Hisham


Home Minister Hishamuddin Hussein has denied a letter allegedly directing uncollected MyKads and MyKids to be sent to Sabah, saying it is fake.

NONE“The letter is fake. It’s fake. The allegations are being based on a false letter.

“I urge the public who do not have political motivations not to believe the accusations that certain parties are making,” the minister said at a press conference today.

He added that the National Registration Department (NRD) chairperson Jariah Mohd Said will be lodging a police report today on the matter.

He was speaking to the media after celebrating Immigration Day in Putrajaya this morning.

Yesterday PAS vice-president Mahfuz Omar demanded the government’s explanation on the letter.

He claimed that the directive was issued to all state NRD directors and districts in a letter dated Dec 14, 2012, stating that any MyKad and MyKid that was not collected within 18 months should be sent to Keningau, Sabah.
