The Group remained focused on strengthening operational resilience while continuing investments in AI-powered technologies, e-KYC systems, anti-fraud solutions, and digital authentication capabilities. These initiatives are aligned with our long-term vision of building an integrated ecosystem combining physical and digital identity solutions. A significant milestone subsequent to the financial year end was the launch of the new generation MyKad and Passport in June 2026.
