The Commissioner also called on all the ARMM voters to participate in tomorrow’s historic balloting saying that the automated polls are “meaningful and trustworthy.”

“Huwag sana nilang palagpasin ang pagkakataon na maging bahagi ng kasaysayan. Bukas, tinatawagan ko ang mga mamamayan dito sa ARMM na lumahok sa halalan dahil ito ay magiging kapani-paniwala at makahulugan,” he said.

    E-Passport is a good system.

    How many finger print identification per second will this e-passport produce?

    If it will take 100,000 to 200,000 fingerprint per second, it’s indeed a good system.

    Speed is the most important for fingerprint identification.

    Because during enrollment time, a process of identification is must, to enable person not to have a multiple record.

    If process time takes an hour or half or two for identification, a bunch of people will be waiting for one person having an identification. Most of this circumstances will occur during the record will reach 100,000 fingerprint(F.P) to more.

    Note that were about to reach 100,000,000(million) population, and 50 percent of grown men will probably take an e-passport.

    We hope this e-passport can offer as a true comfort, IF getting the passport instead of 30 to 60 days will have a couple of minutes.
    BUT if the system is just the same as yesterday getting the passport for more than a month, its just a waste of money.

    And!, can this be helpful? Or just having millions of Peso budget for this new system, How can they track records if one enrolling has a previous criminal record?

    We know they don’t issue if a person has a criminal record.

    Of-course there must be a fingerprint identification access to the Police or NBI fingerprint records too. Or the Police and NBI has no exact system for national fingerprint tracking, and even getting a Police clearance is just as simple as getting a Visitor ID pass.
