What is 'minutia mark finger'?
It means finger print.
Say what?
Yup, that's what it's called in the National Registration Website. (Heck, I don't even know how to pronoune 'minutia')
One of those things that make you squirm in total embarassment.
Unbelievable? Check it out yourself. Count how many times you say 'Ouchie'.

eh, I beg you to take the link off lah...otherwise sakit hati when some foreigners pick this up and publish it in their websites showing our ignorance...malu gile sial...I don't know lah, at one hand I am damned proud of the country, but at the other hand I feel damned malu when things like this happen in an official website.
babe, never my intention to memalukan bangsa dan negara but it seems some things are just getting out of hand these days - believe me, ada banyak lagi benda-benda yang dilakukan sendiri oleh orang2x kita yang jauh lagi memalukan....and for all the world to witness!
as for this, i'm just too shocked by the fact that nobody is competent enough to do a simple job of proper translation. ini bukan kedai runcit bang. by all means, hire someone lah.
so yeah, i'll just leave it as it for now, we should admit our mistake, and hopefully, this government body should do too - and correct it. it's because we hide behind false hope that nobody will notice that we become more ignorant.
anybody want to translate my mumbo-jumbo? :)
Mack, having spread this website as well as publishing it in my own blog, I think you are absolutely right that there are worse and more embarassing things being done out there. As for official government websites, it would not have cost them a lot of money to do it right. It seems to me that they just used some tool like Google translator and used that without actual checking. Keep the post as I am mine.
Anyways, it's been amended and corrected though
well, that's the end of the drama then :)
