Project IC Boils Over In Sabah
KOTA KINABALU, Jan 19 (Bernama) -- Former Internal Security Act (ISA) detainee Hassnar Ebrahim shocked a lot of people, particularly the locals, when he exposed a Malaysian identification card (IC) scam or known as Project IC in Sabah, during a recent interview with a local newspaper. The locals here are stunned as many of them who reside in the state's interiors have yet to own the sophisticated Malaysian IC or MyKad, but based on Hassnar's claims, it seems that the card was easily accessible to foreigners. While Project IC is not a new issue in Sabah, it continues to be debated by many who gave their opinions and expressed concern as the matter is related to the issue of illegal immigrants in Sabah, which is perceived as the mother of all social woes in the state. Hassnar, an entreprenuer, confessed that he unknowingly became involved with others who made it possible for thousands of foreigners to secure the Malaysian ICs.
