Initial sample of PHL national ID card

The Senate on Tuesday ratified and adopted the bicameral conference committee version of the bill seeking to establish a national identification system for the Philippines.

The bill seeks to harmonize, integrate, and interconnect the countless and redundant government IDs, around 33, by establishing a single national identification system to be known as the Philippine Identification System or PhilSys.

A sample of the ID card was posted on Twitter by Super Radyo dzBB's Rowena Salvacion.

Laguna Rep. Sol Aragones, the author of the House of Representatives version of the measure, said that consultations will still be held with government agencies on the features of the card. —JST, GMA News
