PETALING JAYA: NexG Bhd, the parent company of Malaysia's supplier of passports and MyKads, has renamed itself, reverting to its former name of Datasonic Group Bhd.
In a filing with Bursa Malaysia, the company said its shareholders approved the name change at its annual general meeting on Sept 30, Bernama reported.
From Oct 7, its securities will be traded and quoted under the new name but with the same stock code.
The government was previously considering acquiring the company's subsidiary, Datasonic Technologies Sdn Bhd, at a preliminary indicative value of RM7.5 billion.
