Bank Negara Malaysia requirement on using phone for mobile banking app authorisation is making people waste money on unnecessary phone upgrade. 
I have a backup phone that still functioning well, no scratch and damaged since I'm not frequently used it. Now the phone cannot be used for mobile banking authorisation since the requirement is you need to use Android 11.
In other countries no such nonsense that being applied to their citizen.
Just because certain "STUPID MALAYSIAN" that keep download bullshit apps on their phone and keep being scammed due to their fault, now the whole Malaysian need to face the consequences thanks to the idiots that don't know how to use their phone properly.
This is actually BNM following up to date security practices. Which is damn bloody good for a gov agency.

It's ok to have 2 step authentication, i agree with this policy for security (just having password is not enough). But the method the bank negara uses requiring you to spend rm500-rm1000 for an up to date model android phone a bit too much la
Not sure if the OS version of the device is a requirement set by BNM. Could easily be something advisory, but up to banks to see what version they can cater to.
