PADU database to be officially launched on Jan 2, 2024 at PICC Putrajaya – public can register to attend event

The government will roll out the Pangkalan Data Utama (PADU) socio-economic database on January 2, 2024, with prime minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim set to officially launch the database at the Putrajaya International Convention Centre (PICC) on the day.

UPDATE: PADU has been launched. Full story here.

In an X (Twitter) post, economy minister Rafizi Ramli invited the public to attend the launch event to hear for themselves how PADU will be a key component of the retargeting of subsidies and government assistance. Those who want to attend the launch event can register here. The event will also be broadcast via social media platforms from 10 am on the day.

To recap, PADU is an integrated national socio-economic database combining all available data from government departments and agencies, with household net disposable income metrics being used to provide a fair picture of the socio-economic position of every Malaysian household.

As reiterated in his X post, Rafizi said PADU was a crucial component in allowing the government to move from the B40-M40-T20 approach in assessing the eligibility of aid recipients to a more targeted and fair determination of who should be able to receive aid and those who should not.

The establishment of PADU paves the way for the targeted subsidy of RON 95 petrol, which is set to happen in the second half of 2024. As previously reported, there are three mechanisms likely to be used to implement the targeted subsidies for petrol and diesel. The first will be based on individual net disposable income, which is the amount remaining after taxes.

The second mechanism will be based on net disposable household income through social protection or assistance schemes, while the third is a combination of household and individual income, which will be implemented through a subsidies card.

    The worst nightmare for PADU is for the system being targets of hackers.
    All the personal data of the rakyat is to be safeguarded,and not easily hacked like the Socso incident.
    Dont just showcase a SYIOK but hackable database.
    The rakyat deserves protection ,not another avenue for being scam victims.

    Mythomania bermaksud kelainan psikologi yang menyebabkan seseorang mempunyai perilaku berbohong secara terus-menerus dan dalam jangka waktu yang lama.

    Berikut adalah ciri-ciri mythomania:

    – Pembohongan mereka tidak mempunyai kelebihan tertentu

    – Kisah biasanya dramatik, rumit, dan sangat terperinci

    – Biasanya mereka menjadi penyelamat atau mangsa utama dalam cerita

    – Mereka percaya bahawa kisah mereka benar-benar berlaku

    – Pembohongan diceritakan berulang kali.

    • It is 100% developed by G’s own civil servants. Since previous Gs always awarding new system contract to cronies or abang adik, doesn’t mean the current one just like them before. So it is internally develop and not involving 3rd party so said consultant whatsoever.

        This is a pain for Rakyat after Madanon still insisting with the antique SST that does not drive revenues but leakages. Padu can be hijacked. Why don’t Madanon just revert to GST than even illegal migrantsn will also need to pay taxes.

    How is this going to be different? Always build and gather data, only to be “leaked” and sold. Then investigate2, satu habuk pun tadak. Then suddenly we get more calls from mahkamah on unpaid taxes and more losing life savings. This vicious cycle will never end.

    They should be subjected to PDPA, not only private entity.

    Yang Dikejar Tak Dapat Yang Dikendong Berciciran!

    WHat is the logic here? The person who works really hard and have a high salary (pays 20% plus percent taxes per month). Then to reward himself/herself, he/she goes and buy a BMW (again pays a lot of taxes). Now the Brilliant/Best/Bodoh Government want to tax the same person for petrol. So are we encouraging mediocrity and laziness?

    If the Government want to be fair, abolish all subsidies and reduce all excessive taxes. Savings directly deposit to the needy person. Using 1960 method to solve 2023 issue. Such brilliant plan.
