KUALA LUMPUR: The government’s Central Database Hub (Padu) launched on Tuesday (Jan 2) is a step forward in ensuring better public governance, particularly in making sure socioeconomic policies are well-implemented through an all-around data orientation.
Security and political analyst from Universiti Teknologi Mara (UiTM) School of Media and Information Warfare Studies, Dr Noor Nirwandy Mat Noordin, however, said besides individual and household profile data, PADU can also be expanded to include data on businesses and commercial outlets in the country.
