Tinglayan, Kalinga – A total of 8,598 yTinglayan completed the Step 2 registration process for the Philippine Identification System (PhilSys) ID, according to Philippine Statistics Authority-Kalinga.
The figure posted by PSA-Kalinga on their Facebook page on Sunday, October 9, is 72 percent of the 11,930 approximate target population in the municipality.
PSA-Kalinga said this target includes children ages five and up.
Step 2 process involves the capturing of the registrant's biometric information, such as iris scan, fingerprint scan, and front-facing photograph and the validation of information at the local registration centers.
This guarantees the registered yTinglayans of a legitimate identification they could utilize for more efficient transactions with the government and private parties.
Mobile Registration Center in Tinglayan
In order to bring the service closer to yTinglayans, mobile registration has been conducted in the municipality by PSA-Kalinga.
Larae Lactao, Municipal Information Officer of Tinglayan, said PSA-Kalinga installed a temporary office at the municipal hall just in front of the office of Mayor Sacrament Gumilab.
“Adda ti post da dituy munisipyo sangu ti mayor's office. Other times ket mapan da diay barangay mismo,” Lactao stated.
The move of having mobile registration in different barangays, according to PSA-Kalinga, is to accommodate household members who cannot travel to designated registration centers in the province due to health or financial problems, long hours of travel time, bad weather conditions, among others.
