JOHOR BARU, Jan 14 — As of yesterday, 112,524 or 4.1 per cent of Johoreans had registered with the Central Database Hub (Padu) system since its launch on January 2.
The Johor branch of the Department of Statistics Malaysia (DoSM) in a statement said, however, that the figure was still less than satisfactory.
“Therefore, Bangsa Johor are invited to visit Padu counters set up at the Digital Economy Centre (PeDi) in nearby areas to update their profiles,” it said.
The department said that Johor DoSM officers would be stationed at selected counters to assist the public in updating the Padu.
Johoreans could also head to any Johor DoSM office in Johor Bahru, Kluang, Muar and Batu Pahat for the purpose, it added.
Updates can also be made online through the Padu website at www.padu.gov.my, while the latest information related to the system can be found through the official social media accounts of Padu, the Ministry of Economy, Department of Statistics Malaysia or Johor DoSM.
Padu aims to improve the efficiency of policy planning and resource distribution, especially for targeted government subsidies and assistance. — Bernama
