KUALA LUMPUR: Those who have registered with the central database hub (Padu) will still be able to update incomplete information even though the registration deadline has passed.
Chief statistician Mohd Uzir Mahidin said the deadline for registering with Padu remained March 31.
“To those who have missed out some information, perhaps their identification (failed to verify their identity), e-KYC, the (Padu) team is assisting to ensure that they can update or complete the information needed in the system.
“What we close is for those who did not register at all (with Padu) between the period of Jan 2 and March 31,” he said as a guest on Bernama TV’s Ruang Bicara programme yesterday.
He added that data on Malaysians would always be at hand thanks to Padu, and would allow the government to conduct an accurate analysis of those who qualify for benefits.
“The data in the system will allow the government to study issues, including how to analyse so that the aid pattern will not take one assessment or layer only,” Uzir said.
He added that the public should be confident in the need for data in spurring the country forward, and that everyone’s support and cooperation was needed to make this happen.
Economy minister Rafizi Ramli had earlier announced that 17.65 million or 58.7% of the country’s population, including household members under 18, had been updated in the Padu system. - FMT
