Senator Panfilo Lacson has revived the call for a National Identification System. He said that with so many IDs in use by different government agencies, it is a simple matter for a criminal to just change his name and get a new ID."Our wallets are full of so many IDs and we're so scared of a singular ID system," Lacson, who has refiled his National ID System bill, said.
He said that citizens should not be worried about their privacy since the ID will only record information like birthdates and vital statistics. He said financial information like bank accounts will not be recorded on the ID.
Lacson said he is still looking for someone who will file a counterpart bill at the House of Representatives.
