The Philippine Star
|September 01, 2024
Senators have so many questions on the cancellation of the contract for the production of 116 million national IDs, Senate Minority Leader Aquilino Pimentel III said yesterday.

Pimentel said he would file a resolution calling for the Senate to investigate the decision of the Monetary Board (MB) to cancel the contract between the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) and the private supplier for the printing of national ID cards.
“There are many people who are not happy with the rollout of the national IDs. There are many complaints, like they have applied long ago, and years have passed, but they have yet to get their cards,” Pimentel said in an interview over dwIZ radio.
