MELAKA: There will be a six-month delay in the issuance of MyKid for newborns in this country following the global microchip shortage caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, says Datuk Ruslin Jusoh.
The National Registration Department director-general said, however, parents can still submit new applications but have to wait a little longer because NRD will process the applications in stages according to their respective turns.
He also urged all government and private agencies to accept birth certificates for any business involving children as it is the only document recognised in important matters such as applications for school admission. Commenting on the Mekar programme, he said the outreach programme for the issuance of identity documents such as MyKad and birth certificates for persons with disabilities, the elderly, bedridden patients and residents in remote areas had seen a positive impact since it was introduced in 2013.
"In Melaka, a total of 78 series of the programme have been held and benefited 212 applicants,” he said.
