iKad , also known as the identity card for foreigners who stay in Malaysia for a period of time such as foreign workers, university students.


Previously , the old version of I-Kad was manufactured by Percetakan Nasional Malaysian Berhad (PNMB), a company owned by tycoon TanSri Syed Mokhtar.

They helped Jabatan Imigresen Malaysia (JIM) to manufacture and print the identity card , at a price of RM48 per piece.

As contrary to our national ID MyKad , the iKad was not equipped with chips and it was not digitalized , and bring no extra safety features.

According to officials from JIM, PNMB was not puncture in delivering supplies to them , and they were not able to fulfill the orders . Hence the last supply was halted around June 2019, where the contract is supposed to last until May 2020.
To substitute the missing iKad, the officers of JIM can only use temporary stickers to paste on foreigners passport.

The open tender of iKad was opened early this month, government demanded a total supply of 10mil iKad which is to be fulfilled in 3 years period .

The new iKad requires stringent specifications , such as 11 safety features , water resistant,with electronic chip which is compatible and able to integrate with JIM core system ，flash memory , able to store HD personal bio data photo ,cryptography， augmented reality etc , and most the product has to have a shelf life of at least 5 years or above.

The manufacturer of iKad is required to develop an in-house app which enables all JIM officials to check and validate the iKad on their mobile device (to ease the procedure when having spot check ), self-testing procedure to validify the genuinity of the card.

The project is valued at RM400-RM480 million , based on the previous offered price from the previous vendor.


In Malaysia ,there are only a scarce number of digital ID card manufacturers , apart from PNMB (previous vendor for IKad) and Iris (previous vendor for MyKad before 2012), Datasonic is the strongest in its sector in the region. Datasonic stands a good chance to win this RM480mil project , as it’s currently the vendor for MyKad.

According to Jabatan Pendaftaran Malaysia , the number of replacement of our NRIC , MyKad , significantly reduced after Datasonic became the vendor of the national identity card , which in other words prove its integrity and merits in providing good quality products and help government to save money. Proudly to say , our MyKad is among the best digital ID in the world , if were to compare the design , safety features and durability .

According to World Bank’s data, It’s estimated that Malaysia currently having a sum of 6 millions foreign workers , where only 2 millions are registered legally.

Alongside with the Covid outbreak , our government has been riding the chance in identifying the location of illegal foreign workers , this is the best timing to either repatriate or rehire those illegal foreign workers via the proper way.
At this juncture , government can decide whether to register them and make them legal , or to send them back to original country .

Our MyKad is sold fo government at RM17 per piece, this yields a decent margin to Datasonic.
I believe Datasonic can produce iKad with the same technology and costing structure, but can sell at premium price of RM48 (can also sell to government at more affordable price to help government save money)
Let’s say if they quote RM20 for a piece of iKad, The successful commencement of this project will boost Datasonic’s earning by RM15-20 million a year.

The tender will be closing early next month. In view of the merits and capability among the peers , it shouldn’t be difficult for Datasonic to pocket in this project.

Chew added that Datasonic had “ample experience in managing mission-critical national projects for the Malaysian government.”

And should it be awarded the tender, Datasonic would be able to finance the project using internal funds as well as loans from their principal banks, said Chew.

Datasonic is currently the sole provider of the MyKad since 2012, and is the sole provider of the Malaysian e-Passport since 2016. It is also the personalisation solution provider for Europay, Mastercard and Visa in Malaysia to more than 10 local and foreign banks.
