Padu: Significant milestone in govt's pursuit of efficiency, inclusivity


KUALA LUMPUR: The newly launched Central Database Hub (Padu) system in Malaysia marks a significant milestone in the government's pursuit of efficiency and inclusivity, with nobody left behind, said information technology experts.

Freddy Loo, who specialises in data and artificial intelligence (AI) technology, said that he is glad that someone (the government) is taking the bull by the horns to create a centralised database, as this initiative is long overdue and signals a departure from the practice of each ministry creating its own isolated databases.
