13MP: Security Sector, Pillar Of National Stability And Progress

KUALA LUMPUR, July 31 (Bernama) -- The allocation of RM51 billion to the security sector under the 13th Malaysia Plan (13MP) proves the government's commitment to making security the main pillar of the country's stability and progress, said Home Minister Datuk Seri Saifuddin Nasution Ismail. He said the large fund would drive various important initiatives including the modernisation of security operations and improving the welfare of frontline personnel. "With the allocation of RM51 billion to the security sector, this is a clear signal that the government recognises security as a pillar of the country's stability and progress," he said in a statement today. He also expressed appreciation for the government's serious emphasis on the welfare of security personnel, including the provision of quarters for them, involving more than 82,000 units in various phases of construction and renovation. "The provision of 1,368 new Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM) quarters and 3,088 Malaysian Armed Forces (MAF) quarters has been completed, plus another 8,501 units are being built and 69,141 existing quarters are being renovated, which is a meaningful step in safeguarding the well-being of personnel and their families," he said. He said the ongoing efforts in the 13MP to improve infrastructure, facilities and support for security personnel are very welcome and deserve to be praised because they pave the way for the excellent performance of the personnel. "We cannot expect our security forces to serve efficiently and dedicatedly if their basic needs such as comfortable housing, a conducive environment and social need are neglected," he said. Saifuddin Nasution said the ministry also welcomed the government's efforts to modernise the country's immigration system through the National Integrated Immigration System and the use of advanced technology such as artificial intelligence (AI) which is deemed timely in facing current security challenges. "This approach enables the national security forces to function efficiently, responsively and strategically in addressing current challenges as well as increasing the effectiveness of security control at land and maritime borders, especially in facing geopolitical tensions and regional security issues such as in the South China Sea," he said.

Zetrix AI allowed to continue providing immigration-related services

Zetrix AI Bhd, formerly MyEG Services Bhd, said it received a letter from the home ministry confirming that it could continue to offer immigration-related services. (Website pic) PETALING JAYA : Zetrix AI Bhd, formerly known as MyEG Services Bhd, has been allowed to continue providing immigration-related services despite the immediate termination of its agreement with the immigration department. In a bourse filing, Zetrix AI said it received a letter from the home ministry today clarifying that the company could continue to offer immigration-related services within the scope of any other agreement with the government. It said it had a teaming agreement with Heitech Padu Bhd, which was awarded the National Integrated Immigration System (NIISe) project, under which immigration-related services, including foreign worker permits, were within the NIISe project scope. 'The suite of immigration-related services provided by the company continues to be accessible to customers through its platform,' it said. The company also said it expected minimal disruption and no material impact on its financial performance following this development. On July 15, it was reported that Bursa Malaysia Securities Bhd fined seven of Zetrix AI's directors RM150,000 each for failing to ensure three company announcements in 2023 were factual and accurate. Bursa said Zetrix AI announced on July 7, 2023, among other things, that a notification letter dated July 4, 2023 from the home ministry confirmed the finance ministry's approval of the company's appointment as the government revenue collection agent and extended its role as the provider of online services for the immigration department. It said the July 7 announcement was inaccurate, false and misleading as it was inconsistent with the contents of the July 4 letter. It said Zetrix AI and the directors also failed to make an immediate announcement to clarify the inconsistency, but maintained its misrepresentation of matters in the company's subsequent announcements on Sept 13 and Sept 14 that year. On July 15, it was reported that Zetrix AI would seek a judicial review against Bursa over the penalty imposed on its directors.
