The agency advises the public who do not need to upgrade or replace their MyKad to postpone their requests for the six-day period. For first-time applications for children 12 years of age or younger, parents or guardians are encouraged to wait to allow their child to receive the new MyKad system, which will be issued shortly. JPN expresses appreciation for the patience and cooperation of the public during this transition period and apologizes for any inconvenience that may arise, according to a statement.",
