Should you change your identity if someone took yours?
June 4th, 2010Apparently that’s what an officer of the National Registration Department (NRD) advised Siti Rosita Mustapah, 19, of Sandakan in 2007.
Summary of events:
- she applied for her MyKad at the NRD’s Sandakan branch in 2005.
- she repeatedly checked on the status since Dec 2005. Each time told it was not ready.
- Sandakan NRD office advised to check with NRD head office in Kota Kinabalu and upon checking on 5th Dec, was told that the card had been issued to someone else. She claimed that she was then accused of “being an impostor.”
- on 7th Dec 2007, she went to Sandakan NRD office and was told that she “can make a fresh application with a new identity to resolve the problem.”
Whoa, that would make even pregnant women on prenatal vitamins might get a nasty shock.
What do you think?
