In our earlier blog entry entitled, “Enforcement of the Malaysian Personal Data Protection Act 2010“, we mentioned that the Personal Data Protection Department stated that “it is best for us to wait for the Minister to make the announcement on the enforcement of the Act and notify in the Gazette”.
We recently came across a tweet by the Information, Communication and Culture Minister, Datuk Seri Utama Dr Rais Yatim that the Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA) will come into force “middle of the year”.
We look forward to the announcement of the date of operation of the PDPA in the Government Gazette.
