Govt intends to stop masking NRIC numbers, says there is not 'much value in doing so'

[Philipkee]

now i'm beginning to fear for sg's future liao. run or ruined by 4G

I worry we are going to become like this

Before a problem happens, you raise it up - why are you paranoid
When it happens - let’s work as a team and solve this first
After it’s over - what’s past is past

When something happens
No loss - see I told you nothing to worry
A bit happens - no blame culture
Big thing happens - we all go down so no one is left to point fingers anyway

Change entire policy just to cover up a mistake?

 

[spying]

While we are at it, lets release everyones passport numbers, bank account numbers as well. no need to be private. Need to make life easier for overseas scammers.

I dunno who to believe. Did PAP came up with this last minute to hide their failures? Or is it really true?

So we are all to take PAP at its words? No heads will roll this time?
ANOTHER HONEST MISTAKE
and
NO BLAME CULTURE again?

Those stupid one got no cure.

 

[dnsfpl]

if they know your birth year, + last 3 digits and letter
eg born 1990, last 3 digit + letter 123A
your NRIC is S90XX123A
it takes less than a min to crack a XX lor

i dont understand why carousell need to verify
Principal Name, Date of Birth, Registered Address
with the 3 info + NRIC, anyone can easily call bank and verify identity as me sia

 

[BohemianSG]

Lead by example please. Get all the politicians to declare their Ic numbers since no value in masking.

Address also... and cup size if relevant.

 

[DynamiteZerg]

This happened under Jo Teo's watch. That's why you can't put someone clueless to run a ministry...

 

[eno_lc]

Maybe leak so much liao so no point to mask anymore, just let it go

 

[marshalTan93]

Cannot say liddat. Must give face to Jo Teo & elites precious FTs. Esp those in tech .

As the issuing authority for the NRIC, the Government says it rightfully uses the NRIC to discharge its functions and services with citizens in a secure manner.

open to public search is secure?
