00:00What is the reason for you?
00:11They want to take one more picture outside?
00:13Then we go there.
00:31Because the lady has come up with a title initially called DPW, which is non-existent.
00:37Then when we highlighted that the title was non-existent, it was changed to PMW, which is actually a Wilaya Award.
00:44Now what this lady did next is when she realized there was a problem, she got a foundation company, whether it's hers or it's not hers, I don't know,
00:54which we did a search and we cannot seem to find a registration as well.
00:58This company is the one that has supposedly awarded her the PMW title, which carries the title Datuk.
01:08With all these non-existent titles, we, the Majlis Datuk Malaysia, are very concerned by the continued usage of such titles, fake titles, I would say,
01:19that undermines our royalty, our governors, even our sultans, because we are usurping their rights as enshrined in various acts, including Acts 7, 8, 7.
01:32We think that she might have been scams, but we don't know.
01:35But don't, even if you have been scams, you don't have to be scams when you are using the names of the names of the names.
01:42You must understand, when she's posting things like this online, with her 3 million followers outside there,
01:49people are all thinking, I also want title, I also want tansri, I also want to, no need to go through a process, okay?
01:55I can get a title just by printing it and using it.
01:59Now, this is where I always say it's wrong.
02:02You all know it's wrong, okay?
02:04And the repercussions is wrong, it's very great.
02:07We leave that to the police, the DPPP, etc., for them to decide what they want to do.
02:12We have got so many reports from members.
02:14They went into business with a certain Datuk.
02:17When they checked, the Datuk is stated in the SSM website under the register of companies, Datuk or Tansri.
02:24But they don't have such a title.
02:26I don't know why this occurs.
02:28I always say, you are not sure, don't use title, just use the IC name.
02:33Habes.
