Malaysia's MyKad is getting ready for another major update, and this time the focus appears to be very clear: stronger identity protection. The next-generation national identity card is expected to be introduced sometime next month, although an exact launch date has not been confirmed yet. Ahead of the official rollout, National Registration Director-General Datuk Badrul Hisham Alias has shared several early details about what Malaysians can expect from the updated MyKad.
