The Penang government is proposing that the state’s welfare system, i-Sejahtera’s data be standardised with that of the Science, Technology and Innovation Ministry (Mosti).
Penang Chief Minister Chow Kon Yeow said standardising data from i-Sejahtera, encompassing the elderly, single mothers, persons with disabilities, as well as anak emas, pelajar emas and ibu emas in Penang, with Mosti’s was for the good of the elderly and vulnerable groups.
He also suggested that clinics and private medical practitioners be involved in the immunisation effort, especially mobile vaccinations, where Mosti could cooperate with the Health Ministry regarding any future guidelines.
