25 September 2024 Guimaras. – The Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA)-Guimaras Provincial Statistical Office continues its efforts to bring the Philippine Identification System (PhilSys) services closer to residents through its Barangay and House-to-House registration strategy and successfully registered 43.14% of its target for the third quarter (Q3) with 4,740 registrants across the province.

According to Provincial Statistics Officer Nelida B. Losare, the concerted effort to facilitate on-site registrations has been essential in reaching remote and underrepresented communities.

“Since July, we have worked closely with the local barangay officials and community leaders to ensure that every eligible resident, particularly those in far-flung areas, has the opportunity to register for PhilSys,” Losare stated.

As of September 24, 2024, the PSA Guimaras recorded 2,045 registrations, a testament to the extensive groundwork and community engagement the team has executed since the beginning of the third quarter.

Registering young children, particularly those aged 1 to 4 years old, is aligned with the national campaign to cover all age groups under the PhilSys program.

Losare shared that, out of the total registrations, 1,056 or 51.63 were children aged 1 to 4 years old.

“This initiative is crucial in ensuring that even the youngest members of the population have their PhilSys IDs, which will eventually serve as their official proof of identity for various government services," Losare said.

To enhance further its outreach, PSA Guimaras has implemented several strategies: Barangay and house-to-house initiatives, PhilSys on wheels, school-based registration, plaza-type registration, and sitio or purok registration,” Losare explained. 

These initiatives aim to ensure that registration is convenient and accessible, no matter where and what location and circumstances are. 

The Barangay and House-to-House registration campaign will continue until the target population is fully registered, as committed by the government toward inclusivity and accessibility, ensuring that every Filipino, regardless of location or socioeconomic status, is enrolled in the PhilSys program.

Through PhilSys, the government aims to create a more streamlined and efficient identification system for all citizens, enhancing access to services and promoting social and financial inclusion. 

“For those who have yet to register, the PSA encourages residents to take advantage of the ongoing registration drives happening in their barangays or through house-to-house visits," Losare said. 

“For more information on the PhilSys registration schedule and locations, residents are advised to coordinate with their local barangay officials or visit the PSA-Guimaras office," Losare added.
