Transport Minister Anthony Loke has announced a new feature that would be added to the registration steps on the MyJPJ application as a security measure.

He said that new users would have to insert the unique codes from their driving licence when registering a new account in the application.

This, Loke added, would prevent anyone from making accounts with other people’s IC numbers.

“I have approved a suggestion from the Road Transport Department (RTD) to include a new feature in the app registration where the users must include the unique codes from their driving licence.

“There were concerns that anybody could take any IC number and make a new account in MyJPJ,” Loke said at the launch of Arts On The Move at the Pasar Seni MRT Station today.

Loke emphasised that this was a crucial step as, without the unique codes, the accounts would not be approved by the system.

He said those without licences can register directly at RTD branches.

Furthermore, Loke stated that those who have already registered their accounts prior no longer need to inscribe their unique codes again.

No decision on phasing out physical licences

Loke further elaborated on the digitisation of the Road Transport Department (RTD) that there has been no decision from the Transport Ministry to phase out physical driving licences.

He acknowledged that there were already people upset at the new transition with road tax stickers, saying he could only imagine how the public would react to any other digitisation.

“The reaction we (the ministry) expect is that not everyone will support this move as they could be from rural areas where internet connectivity is a problem.

“We don’t want to force people to digitise.

“For licences and road tax, we will take a step-by-step approach,” the minister said.

Additionally, he stated that his ministry and RTD will monitor the take-up rate of road tax digitisation for the next six months or the rest of the year.

“If the take-up rate has reached a comfortable level, then we can make a final decision to go fully digital,” Loke said.

On Feb 10, Loke announced that Malaysians no longer needed to display their motor vehicle licences on their vehicles as part of the RTD’s digitisation efforts.

However, the sticker must still be displayed on all commercial and foreign-owned vehicles, including public transportation.

Learner’s permit holders, vocational licence holders, and foreigners with Malaysian or international driving permits must also carry their physical licences.

Ehh?

Just registered family member just now
Like 5 mins ago

Why need to get temp password?

Now fast fast register
So others cannot register them 1st

Whoever design the first system? Some clueless intern I guess.

Where is this unique code on the driving licence?

1st time register will need to wait for temp password in email when u 1st time login need to change that

Myjpj or other?

At the back of driving license.

mysikap. myjpj I not sure cuz mysikap was easier to do on web while i helped my family member register then they can login myjpj using mysikap credentials.

I would say myjpj straight register using ic number and can straight away register password

I would say register on your own phone through myjpj, put in details like email and phone numbers, and set the password

Later give the password to your relatives

Myjpj is too easy to a point that adding security lesen code is miniscule better than what it is now

well to me it was availability cuz the app was connection error when 1st register and then put in details to register again said already register. I was like what!
Then I have to select forgot password at mysikap which prompt failed to send email tac.
At last, I try mysikap since ktards tips here says it was same system and at midnight I succesfully reset the password for myjpj.
well note that this was the early day or I would say midnight after when loke just announced the e-lesen so maybe they did optimization ald.

Btw I think adding security license code is fair enough since malaysian ic number would be leaked everywhere.
ur banker, hr, tng, telco as well a lot more would knew ur ic. just like ur phone number.

Anyone registered mamaks ic and see what car he owns?

Myjpj app now much more stable
I did the registration just now and finished like in 5mins

No error so far

As for license security is mile better than what it is now

But it's not really secure
Only less used numbers

Right now I have 3 account registered to a same email account
2 of it to a same number

Still myjpj app is nothing important to a scammer I guess

I'm going for the good 'o ways of physical road tax and license. Mine expiring on April.
