“The meeting also emphasised efforts to intensify MyDigital ID registration, particularly for government apps, and integrating new systems with existing platforms to ensure more efficient, cohesive, and citizen-focused service delivery.

“Presentations from the Ministry of Health and Ministry of Digital highlighted the Government Innovation Initiative (GII), which could significantly enhance the nation’s healthcare system,” he posted on Facebook.

In addition, he said the council noted input from the National AI Office (NAIO), which stressed the development of AI policies leveraging local talent across sectors while ensuring inclusive participation opportunities for all age groups.
