# M’sian Netizens Roast PADU Logo For Copying Selling Platform & Lack Of Artistic Sense

In a recent unveiling, Malaysia introduced [PADU](https://weirdkaya.com/what-is-padu-heres-how-you-can-register-for-it/), its new data hub aimed to enhance the delivery of government services. But it's not the tech that's making waves—it's the logo.

A particular [Facebook post ](https://www.facebook.com/nazimzafri/posts/pfbid036Gxf8LtmrEVyZUbScWXEmQnjQekNLbCyJ6j5cgRBBuRxjpzuAHNbE1zabs7g5DGSl)has raised an artistic uproar, questioning why local university talents were bypassed for the design.

Critics suggest the logo lacks the creative punch expected from a country rich in artistry, hinting at a missed chance for showcasing homegrown skills.

## Netizens question creativity

A comparison of the 'PADU' logo with an abstract 'A' the netizen found on a logo selling platform suggests the design was not bespoke.

Priced at $99, the similarity raises questions about the originality and effort invested in the logo meant to symbolize a significant national database.

A user made a sarcastic remark about the logo looking like a quick copy-and-paste job, joking that it was probably done to save money.

One user lamented that the design made the logo even less attractive, comparing it to something more fitting for a school club

Amidst the laughter, comments fly suggesting even polytechnic students could've aced it.
