ADVERTISEMENTThe program employs a “citizen registration application system,” which would become the city database. The initiative will provide access to health records and the civil registry, help manage waste, monitor disasters and other emergencies, and regulate traffic. Online transactions for business permit applications, tax payments, and government clearances will be facilitated through a payment portal. The initiative could also help develop a “smart campus” that would facilitate distance learning, said Rolly Malig, ITBS business development, and marketing consultant. Malig said the company is providing the system for free to help Tarlac fight COVID-19.
