Padu: It’s a game-changer

PUTRAJAYA: Putrajaya’s newly developed Central Database Hub (Padu) will not just ensure the distribution of aid and subsidies is efficient and reaches their target groups, it will also stop leakages in government assistance, says the Prime Minister.

Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said with Padu in place, those who are not eligible – the 3.5 million foreigners, the wealthy and those in the high-income group – would not be receiving aid as the system would be able to identify them.
