The card looks fine to me.

How did you know it is not IRIS chip.

FYI, IRIS name is not there because government do not allow. I wonder why because Singapore also got thier vendor name printed.

So if IRIS name is not on the chip, it does not mean it is not IRIS chip. On the other hand, if you found IRIS name on the MyKad chip, it might not be IRIS product (might be imitate)

There is one handheld device that can read IC information including biodata, picture and biometric to confirm the identity of the card holder. Note that no one can clone nor modify chips on the MyKad even it is IRIS technical staff.

And that handheld also allow live fingerprint verification agaist MyKAD recorded. It is to 100% confirm he is the exact card holder. It is no way to cheat even it is stolen card + already undergone plastic surgery to suite the picture embedded.

The handheld unit is sold around USD1000. If anyone is interested, you can contact me. Software could be customised to suite anything you wanted. It might be useful for frequet trader!

Astro decoder is not mobile and require AC power outlet. The unit that I spoke off is battery powered. It can use up to 8 hours continuously after full charged. Not to mention reading electronic photo + biometric and verify it using built in live scanner.

Yes you are right. Unless it is being done by high rank JPN officials themselve.

I explain and suggest because I saw misunderstaning about MyKAD and IRIS ma. Ma help to clarify lo... You see I so good.

And if anyone interested on good solution to prevent such thing from happing, you can get some handy (a bit costly I know) device from me ma. Let me know if anyone interested to get one. It will be a good 'toy' to show off around your friends buddy.
