This month, Malaysia enters an important moment in data privacy with the rollout of the Personal Data Protection (Amendment) Act 2024. Spanning three phases, the amendment introduces key changes — recognising biometric data as sensitive, mandating Data Protection Officers, and imposing heftier penalties for non-compliance.
In this episode, we speak with Ong Johnson, Partner & Head of Technology Practice Group, and Lo Khai Yi, Partner & Co-Head of Technology Practice Group at Halim Hong & Quek, to unpack the Act’s implications. From cross-border data transfers to mandatory breach notifications, discover how businesses can stay compliant and turn regulatory readiness into a competitive advantage.
