Many slow to update Padu

PETALING JAYA: Malaysians are currently moving at a sluggish pace when it comes to updating their information on the Central Database Hub (Padu), with only around 6% of the targeted 30 million individuals having completed the process since its launch three weeks ago.

“We need people to update their profile in order for them to receive the proper assistance from the government,” said chief statistician Datuk Seri Mohd Uzir Mahidin (pic) of the Statistics Department.
