Registrations for the second phase of the government's Central Database Hub (Padu) will open after the Cabinet approves several criteria currently being refined by the ministries involved, says Rafizi Ramli.

The Economy Minister said the government, through his ministry and the Finance Ministry as lead agencies, is finalising the details before presenting them to the Cabinet.

00:00Two, one.
00:16The government is in the process of finalising a number of things.
00:23As I said in the Parliament, a form of subsidy in 1995 will involve two levels of implementation.
00:35One is the back-end, which is determining who is eligible.
00:39The other is the front-end, which is the operation at the fuel station.
00:44In general, discussions between the Ministry of Economy and the Ministry of Finance are ongoing.
00:51We had a meeting last week.
00:55Plans regarding timeline and implementation are being discussed.
01:04I think this will be brought to the Cabinet.
01:09Once the Cabinet has agreed, the Ministry of Economy, for example, can announce the timeline.
01:17Because, of course, if the government makes a decision on the criteria and who is eligible,
01:28it will involve a full reopening at a later date.
01:34Because we have to give space to those who have not yet registered to register.
01:39But the process in the government needs to be streamlined
01:43so that the timeline can be used by all ministries.
01:46So that is the process that is currently taking place in the government.
01:50What is the timeline?
01:53The timeline, as I said, we have to get the endorsement at the Cabinet level first.
02:01For now, the ministries are the Ministry of Economy and the Ministry of Finance.
02:08But this will involve the whole country.
02:12So things like eligibility, timeline, etc.
02:17need to be brought back to the Cabinet to be approved.
02:22And once, I think, those things are endorsed by the Cabinet,
02:28and the relevant ministries, such as the Ministry of Economy and the Ministry of Finance,
02:32can announce the timeline, eligibility, mechanism, etc.
