To reduce data leakage risks, the Central Database Hub (Padu) was placed under the purview of civil servants instead of third-party vendors, says Rafizi Ramli.

During a press conference at the Economy Ministry in Putrajaya on Thursday (Jan 4), the Economy Minister said data leakages had previously happened when third-party vendors were contracted to develop government data applications.

Rafizi also said the model of appointing a vendor or private company to develop integrated government applications is no longer appropriate, adding that a third-party vendor’s duties are only limited to the terms of their respective contracts with the government.
