PUTRAJAYA, Sept 20 — The Road Transport Department (JPJ) has found that 2.3 million holders of the Competent Driving Licence (CDL) are currently listed as inactive, either because their licences have expired or have not been renewed for more than three years.
JPJ director-general Datuk Aedy Fadly Ramli said in a statement today that it is an offence for holders of inactive licences to drive, as this poses risks not only to themselves but also to other road users.
He stressed that anyone driving a motor vehicle must have a valid and active driving licence in line with the Road Transport Act 1987 (Act 333).
“If these licence holders still wish to drive, they must retake the Driver’s Education Curriculum Test, Parts 2 and 3 (KPP02 and KPP03), at any nearby driving institute to obtain or reactivate their licences, as required under Act 333,” he said.
At the same time, he urged CDL holders whose licences have expired for less than three years to renew them immediately via the MyJPJ app, the mySikap portal or any JPJ counter nationwide, to avoid having to re-sit the KPP02 and KPP03 tests. — Bernama

🇻🇳 VIETNAM SHUTS DOWN MILLIONS OF BANK ACCOUNTS OVER BIOMETRIC ID RULES
Vietnam just closed more than 86 million bank accounts because owners didn’t sign up for new biometric ID rules that require face scans to use banking services.
The government says it’s all about fighting fraud and money laundering, after police caught a gang using fake scans to move $39 million.
Now anyone making transfers over $379 has to pass a face scan, and bigger transactions always need biometric checks.
Foreigners living in Vietnam are also caught up, with some having to fly back just to keep their accounts alive.
Some people warn this isn’t just about security but could be the start of intense financial surveillance.
Is Vietnam being used as a testing ground for what many are now calling the New Banking Order?
