Mykad issue again

I came across this information from jeffooi.com, such a surprise we could check our Mykad basic information through Astro decoder. the details of article can be found from this url: http://www.jeffooi.com/2006/04/how_wrong_mykad_a_wong_is_a_si.php quoted from jeffooi.com:

How to read MyKad info using Astro decoder

If you have Astro installed at home, you could check your MyKad info using the Astro decoder.

Below are the steps:

1. Choose channel 800
2. Select MyKad Info
3. Insert your MyKad (card facing down or up depending on your decoder model) info the second slot of the Astro decoder
4. Your MyKad Info (name, address, IC number, birth date, religion) will appear on your TV screen

N.B. According to Astro, you may check your credit card info as well.

" so , the article was talking bout a reader of jeffooi.com complaint his Mykad problem. he's a chinese but his religion was stated Sikhism. he's a chinese but his race was stated as HokChiu. so i think NRD was playing a little joke with the reader. But i hope NRD wouldn't be "humourous" enough to have this kind of thought with my Mykad. Not only the RM10 donation to NRD bothers me,but I wouldn't like to spend my precious time with NRD "cute-cute" workers. I must go Astro decoder and check this weekend !
