Read about these two things in news@Yahoo. See how amazing people respond to the report (Bernama) by replying & writing in the blog, website etc; can say it almost about the disagreement of RM50 million spent for this purpose (perhaps most of them came from our young generation).
Their reasons vary: what a waste (he said its not from public money, but a private project by Tricubes Bhd), we already have free e-mail lah! (which is true: yahoo, hotmail, gmail bla,bla,bla), better spend it to the poor, public's welfare...but there is none about rights violence. Couldn't say its agreed or not but personally I don't like the idea (hidden: beware, you're being watched!)
This is about our privacy and security..even we are already in the state that we are not free (IC, passport, whatever mechanism or tools created for any purposes). Still can't see what is exactly the logical reasons except to ease the connection between government & citizen (but we do have e-government, isn't it?)
And coming about the replacing of MyKad through web portal (Kosmo!). It's a good idea anyway, but government should ensure the system is effectively work before the implementation. Malaysia was one of the lower-ranked users of government on-line services, ranking 26th among the 31 countries and territories surveyed in the study by Taylor Nelson Sofres (2003). Users resistance, bandwidth problem, poor services and connection to Internet may contribute. Not to mention the distinction between the system located in urban with rural areas. So, I guess we should stabilize the infrastructure & the architecture of the system first. Be it 1Malaysia e-mail or online MyKad, the effective system should be installed as the priority!
