  "account": "The Companies Commission of Malaysia (SSM) has processed over 70,000 transactions through its new Corporate Registration System (CRS) since its launch on July 14, 2026. This milestone underscores the progress of the platform's rollout as authorities work to resolve early user-experience issues. Deputy Domestic Trade and Cost of Living Minister Datuk Dr Fuziah Salleh reaffirmed the Ministry's commitment to addressing challenges faced by businesses following the introduction of the digital platform. The CRS is a major transformation of SSM's corporate registration services, integrating multiple legacy systems, business processes, and existing services into a single digital ecosystem. The Ministry acknowledged initial challenges, particularly in system performance and user experience, prompting feedback from stakeholders relying on SSM services. To mitigate the impact on businesses, SSM introduced measures such as automatic exemptions from late lodgement fees and extensions for statutory lodgement periods. As of August 10, 2026, more than 70,000 transactions had been successfully processed through CRS, demonstrating the platform's active support for corporate transactions while ongoing stabilisation and enhancement work continued.",
