The department says it has no agents at large to help in MyKad applications.
PETALING JAYA: The National Registration Department (NRD) today sought to distance itself from a scandal involving the sale of fake MyKads uncovered by Sabah police over the weekend.
NRD Director-General Jariah Mohd Said said the department did not have third-party agents to represent it and was therefore not responsible for MyKad applications made outside of its offices.
Responding to reports that a NRD officer was among several people arrested on suspicion of selling fake MyKads to illegal immigrants in Tawau, she said: “The NRD is not responsible for any application transactions for identification cards made by certain individuals outside of NRD offices. Therefore, if any individual offers such services, we seek the public’s cooperation to report it to the authorities.”
She urged applicants to deal directly with NRD at any of its offices, adding that the department did not charge for a first MyKad application if made within 30 days of the applicant’s 12th birthday.
“The process payments for each application is only RM10 as stated under Regulation 6 of the National Registration Regulations 1990 (2007 amendment). There is also no additional payment above that. The maximum compound fine for a lost MyKad is RM300.”
On Saturday, FMT reported that a 52-year-old NRD officer from Putrajaya was among 19 people detained for what Tawau deputy district police chief Supt Keong Ho Eng decribed as “conducting fraud of NRD’s documents”.
The NRD officer is among nine Malaysian men detained. Of the others, eight are Pakistani and one Indonesian. The sole woman among the suspects is a Filipina.
The syndicate was said to have charged between RM1,000 and RM5,000 for a fake MyKad. It is believed that they operated in Lahad Datu and Tawau districts, on Sabah’s east coast.
The group is alleged to have offered MyKad application services to the thousands of poor illegal immigrants who have flooded the state in search of a better life. Police said the applicants were made to believe they were getting Malaysian identification cards legally.
They are believed to be under investigation for cheating, and Keong said there was enough evidence to charge at least three of them.
The arrest came just days after Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak gave the go-ahead for a royal commission to investigate allegations that large numbers of foreigners in the state have been granted citizenship under dubious circumstance and have been found to be voting in elections.

Good job. need to find more Mykad issuance syndicate.we don't wanti the PATI to become the majority in Sabah.
isu ini bukan isu kecil ia harus diberikan perhatian dan disiasat. jgn biarkan ia berleluasa.
RCI perlu ditubuhkan segera, dgn adanya RCI pasti isu ini akan jadi keutamaan.
There must be someone who act like NRD officer.
Sindiket ini harus disiasat dengan baik, kalau tidak nescaya ada pihak yang menggunakan masalah ini untuk melawan kerajaan.
This problem should be investigated once and for all/
Semoga NRD mengawasi pergerakan kakitangannya.
The people must cooperate with the government to help in the MyKad issuance syndicate.
if you know someone who offer such services, please report it to the authorities immediately.
Satu usaha yang baik juga dibuat. Harap akan ada lagi operasi yang banyak dibuat untuk membenteras kes seperti ini.
Nothing new to know the culprits behind the fraudulent/project ic were the NRD officers themselves.
Those irresponsible officers who were involved in this scam should get heavy penalty.
Hope that the syndicates offering fake MyKads outside NRD will be crackdown.

Whoever using fake MyKads can be jailed, beware.

baik siasat semua pegawai2 JPN di negeri ini.. kes ini adalah petunjuk bahawa pegawai2 kerajaan boleh terlibat dengan sindiket2 haram hanya dengan menggunakan kuasa mereka dalam jabatan2 kerajaan..
kalau tidak silap sebelum ini sudah dua kali sindiket IC palsu di Tawau berjaya diberkas oleh polis.. tidak sangka ada lagi kes ke tiga.. bermakna ketua sindiket ini sebenarnya adalah pegawai2 JPN sendiri.. sebab itu sindiket IC palsu tetap wujud selepas diberkas, sebab ketua sebenarnya tidak diberkas sebelum ini..
Pasti pihak berkuasa giat menjalankan operasi untuk mengesan sindekit IC projek
RCI is needed to handle the illegal immigrants and any related to RCI establish
