It was reported that the Communications and Multimedia Ministry had confirmed the termination and investigation in a written reply to Lembah Pantai MP Fahmi Fadzil in Parliament today. For the system to work, all major telcos in Malaysia had surrendered the IMEI number and other customer personal data including the phone numbers, home address as well as MyKad number to Nuemera.
“On May 21, 2018, MCMC issued a notice to Nuemera informing of MCMC’s decision not to renew the PCBS agreement for another five years as provided as an option in the contract agreement,” it reportedly said.
