KUALA LUMPUR: The Malaysian government has agreed to allocate RM2mil to provide in-person services for approximately 3,500 Malaysians residing in the United States to renew their MyKid or MyKad, says Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong.

"Getting their identity cards means a lot to them, as it will enable them to apply for passports and other official documents, facilitating their progress in life," he said. He said those who were under 12 years old at the time and only held their MyKid identification cards encountered issues when applying for Malaysian passports at the country's embassy in the United States.

Dr Wee said that some of these children are now adults, adding that there are about 3,500 affected Malaysians in the US. "During my discussion with the Prime Minister on Oct 10, he mentioned that similar issues exist in Mecca and expressed his willingness to provide assistance. I am grateful to both Saifuddin and Anwar for making these Malaysians' dreams come true."
