Listers,Whereas this is a bold move by NTSA towards digitization, i feel we are missing a bigger opportunity of digitizing our National ID cards and integrate the Driving Licence, Educational Qualification, Health records, KRA tax records and even Election and Travel documentation into one seamless document.I note that the new design is a chip and PIN that is a repository of Biometric information that is the common denominator in most documents. There is need for intra-government collaboration to ride on the crest of emerging technologies and deploy services to citizens with forward looking solutions and efficiencies.
