PETALING JAYA: Economy Minister Rafizi Ramli’s claim that government data in the Central Database Hub (Padu) need not be subjected to the Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA) is baseless, reckless and goes against the global trend, says Lawyers for Liberty (LFL).
LFL director Zaid Malek said in a Friday (Jan 5) statement that the minister seemed to be "completely oblivious to the role and necessity of PDPA legislation in governing personal data".
Uh-oh! Daily quota reached.
