THE data of millions of Malaysians are at risk due to poor security features in the recently launched MyJPJ app, says former Transport Minister Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong.

The Transport Ministry, said Dr Wee when debating on the motion of thanks on the Royal Address, had recently launched the digital Motor Vehicle Licence and Malaysian Driving Licence .“All that is required is just one feature with the MyKad number and all will come out.

Acknowledging that the Road Transport Department had recently announced additional safety features, he said this was, however, inadequate and urged the government to take immediate steps to address the issue as well as review the entire system and not merely through piecemeal measures.“This involved data that should be protected in accordance with the Data Protection Act,” he said.

Both eLKM and eLMM can be applied through the JPJ website at https://public.jpj.gov.my or MyJPJ app from Feb 10. Projects that had been approved for Chinese schools should also continue, he said, citing the example of ongoing plans in two schools in Tebrau, Johor. “It is a long standing issue facing SJK Khai Chee involving very tedious land issues,” he said, adding that they needed to find closure on the matter.
