00:00The implementation of MyDigitalID is one of the government's efforts to facilitate,
00:10streamline, and streamline matters in Thailand,
00:14especially when we refer to government applications,
00:19ensuring the safety and privacy of personal and individual data,
00:24which is always maintained.
00:27For the time being, MyDigitalID is not a necessity
00:32or mandatory for Malaysians.
00:35On the contrary, it is an option that will be integrated
00:40with various government applications and privacy in the future.
00:45Regarding the number of registered users,
00:50until 5.30 pm on July 10,
00:56a total of 465,924 users have registered with MyDigitalID,
01:06and this number includes public officials.
01:09Then, regarding the aspect of the government's strategy
01:13to encourage registration among public officials
01:17and how many among those who have MyDigitalID,
01:21MyDigitalID is a strategic agency under the Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation.
01:29As an implementation agency for MyDigitalID development projects,
01:33MyDigitalID has collaborated with government agencies such as the State Registration Office
01:38and the National Information Distribution Center or NADI,
01:41formerly known as the Malaysian Digital Economy Center,
01:46under the auspices of SKMM or Suruhanjaya Communication and Multimedia Malaysia.
01:51To encourage registration among public officials,
01:57MyDigitalID registrations have been placed in 199 JPN branches
02:04and in 5 NADI branches across Malaysia.
02:09In addition, MyDigitalID will expand the implementation of MyDigitalID
02:15to various demographics of Malaysians in the city and outside the city.
02:21The second question is related to applications.
02:25For your information,
02:28several government applications have been integrated by MyDigitalID teams
02:33under MyDigitalID,
02:36by building a use case with Muda Ale mobile apps,
02:42Human Resources Management System, Hermes,
02:45MySejahtera applications and Muda Ale MyJPG applications.
02:49Meanwhile, the integration of MyDigitalID with the PADU system is currently underway
02:55and we expect it to be ready by August 2024.
03:02At the same time, discussions on the integration of MyDigitalID
03:07with private entities such as Touch&Go, KWSP, iAccount,
03:13state-owned institutions such as LHDN, and the banking sector have also been initiated.
03:18Prior to this, MyDigitalID teams have also held several discussions
03:23and business sessions with the Bank of Malaysia,
03:26banks and investment banks
03:31so that we can plan and expand the use of MyDigitalID
03:37in the banking sector as well as financial matters.
03:43Your Honour,
03:44the success rate of MyDigitalID implementation
03:48has been assessed through the number of applications
03:51that have used the MyDigitalID initiative.
03:54Implementation of MyDigitalID can be enforced through integration
03:58with more government and private applications
04:01that directly help increase the number of users.
04:05Finally, Your Honour,
04:06the rapid increase after the integration of MyDigitalID
04:10with the MyHermes mobile application
04:13has succeeded in showing that the registration trend
04:16is based on the need for its use.
04:18Therefore, the Ministry of Digital Affairs is confident
04:21that when the integration of MyDigitalID with major applications
04:26such as MyJPJ, Padu and other government and private applications
04:31will boost the number of MyDigitalID users.
04:37Thank you, Your Honour.
04:39Thank you, Minister.
04:41Hon Bentong, any additional questions?
04:44Thank you for the answer, Hon Minister.
04:48Your Honour, according to Cyber999,
04:53the number of data leaks in Malaysia has increased
04:56from only two figures in 2021 and 2022,
05:00which is 91 cases and 50 cases,
05:02to 646 cases in 2023.
05:06My question is,
05:07MyMOS has stated that it does not store personal data
05:10and digital user records.
05:12In fact, some countries such as Singapore, Australia and Canada
05:16have used it as a model for the development of digital identity.
05:20What is the strategy and security guarantee
05:22from the Ministry of Digital Affairs
05:24so that there will be no case of digital identity theft?
05:29Thank you.
05:30Hon Minister of Digital Affairs for your answer.
05:32Thank you, Hon Minister for that additional question.
05:35Your Honour, the government is now in the process
05:39of encouraging more people
05:41to use existing digital platforms
05:46to promote not only their businesses
05:49but also their jobs and lives.
05:53So in that situation, I understand and agree
05:56that we need to look at this data aspect seriously.
06:00The government is now taking steps
06:04to implement existing laws
06:09to control data theft.
06:14But in relation to the model used
06:18to build a respectable digital identity,
06:21it does not store personal data of users.
06:25And this is the main strategy, Your Honour,
06:28for security guarantees
06:30so that we can avoid data theft
06:35or identity theft of users.
06:37That is also an important aspect.
06:39We do not want users' identities to be stolen, etc.
06:45In addition, Your Honour,
06:47every user data movement in MyDigital
06:51is in the form of a one-way hash
06:54using the SHA-3 algorithm,
06:58which cannot be read at all.
07:03This algorithm, Your Honour,
07:05is a recognized algorithm
07:08and is also included in the list of
07:11the most trusted cryptographic algorithms in the country
07:15or in short, MySEAL, Your Honour.
07:18That is my answer.
07:20Thank you, Your Honour.
07:21Thank you, Mr. Minister.
07:23Mr. Kapah, please.
07:25Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
07:29Has the government studied the need
07:32to include the aspect of personal data protection
07:35from user misuse
07:37by the government or agency
07:40in the Ombinance Act,
07:42which will be passed in the future?
07:45Is there any explanation
07:47in terms of data sharing
07:49and cloud storage
07:51in the digital ID system
07:53across government, agency, etc.?
07:56And has the government considered
07:58additional safety measures
08:00such as cloud storage system
08:02to ensure personal data safety,
08:05including the previous report
08:07on various cloud storage attempts
08:10such as DDoS?
08:12Thank you.
08:13Honourable Minister for your answer.
08:15Allow me to answer this question, Your Honour.
08:18Your Honour,
08:20first, allow me to explain
08:24that the MyDigitalID system
08:27can be used as a log-on
08:32for the service in the network.
08:35Log-on means
08:37the use of the log-on
08:40can be used for all services
08:43in the network
08:45without the need for a user name
08:47or password,
08:48other than MyDigitalID.
08:50So it is a system
08:52that allows the user
08:54to use one log-on system
08:56and have access to all applications
08:59without having to go through
09:01the log-on process
09:03many times, etc.
09:05The question asked is a good one.
09:07The document mentioned is an omnibus document.
09:11It is generally referred to as an omnibus document.
09:14However, in December,
09:16we will issue a data sharing document.
09:21From that point of view,
09:22this question is correct.
09:24Because when we want to share data,
09:25we have to make sure it is safe.
09:27So the use of MyDigitalID
09:30is slightly different.
09:31But from our point of view,
09:33we want to make sure
09:34that there is a flow
09:37of data between government agencies, etc.
09:40so that we can use this data
09:42to run applications
09:45such as AI, etc.
09:47It is very important for us
09:49to have these laws in place.
09:52In these laws,
09:54we will make sure that
09:55the safety aspect is maintained.
09:57But outside of these laws,
09:59there are also other regulations
10:02that focus on the safety aspect of data.
10:04As we can see,
10:05I mentioned yesterday
10:07the move to personal data and so on.
10:10We will continue to study this aspect
10:12and we will continue to strengthen it
10:14as long as we invite all Malaysians
10:17to use government applications.
10:20We will provide special guidance
10:22to make sure that
10:24when we study this new digital world
10:28that is based on applications and technology,
10:31the government will always look at the safety aspect
10:34and make sure that
10:35it is given a respected priority.
10:37Thank you.
10:47Thank you.
