What has the profession formally asked SSM to do about CRS?

A petition from company secretaries across Malaysia sets out the operational impact of the CRS transition. Its central ask is the temporary reinstatement of MyCoID as a bridging measure so statutory compliance can be maintained while CRS stabilises. The disruption has also reached national press. A letter published in The Star on 22 July 2026 called for a comprehensive government review, noting the RM43.62 million system had yet to function properly nearly a month after implementation. Useful context if you need to explain a delay to a client or a lender: the cause is documented and systemic, not a failure by your firm.
