Data leak of 22 million Malaysians and the standard response is 1. It's not our fault and 2. SOP will be reviewed. Any sense urgency or fear of citizens data being manipulated for the wrong reasons? None.

It IS a breach from this GOVERNMENT’s data base. TAKE RESPONSIBILITY. ACT to make cybersecurity and accountability a priority for this shameless GOVT. CHANGE THE LAW that exempts Federal Govt from responsibility.

YE KE?

Telcos distribute clients and former clients details far and wide. It is the Ministry’s duty to ensure the safety if these data. Time for Ministers and govt administrators to accept accountability and willing to be sued by the public.

And here we go the blame game .

Does anyone care?

Not surprised with such irresponsible answers. In fact expected of him !

Of coz. Of coz.

Your data ws published as evidence and ur saying some other company has all the NRD related data? Ur statement is a slap for you!

Resign la

NRD not govt agency? still got outsource out for what leh ...

Isn’t it Home Ministry’s role to protect personal data of Malaysian regardless of hosting department eh?

Means…? someone is keeping Malaysian data other than NRD?

If not directly, how about indirectly? Is NRD the source of those data of 22m Malaysians?
