THE PUBLIC SHOULD KNOW ABOUT THIS ISSUE. LET THE FILIPINO PEOPLE BE AWARE OF THE FACTS AND THE REAL DEAL ABOUT THE SCRAPPED PASSPORT PROJECT UNDER THE B.O.T. CONTRACT AND WHAT THE DFA REPLACED IT WITH.
This goes to show that prior to the NBN ZTE broadband scandal, there exists a scam in the amount of Php 2-billion pesos courtesy of the DFA and the BSP. Is there any government official who can be trusted ????
SAY WHAT? TWO BILLION PESOS FOR A PASSPORT MODERNIZATION PROJECT...THAT AMOUNT WILLBE COMING FROM THE FILIPINO PEOPLE'S POCKETS. CRIPES! THE DFA SHOULD AVE STUCK WITH THE ORIGINAL B.O.T. CONTRACT WITH THE PROPONENT AND LET THEM FUND THE PROJECT, THEN THIS TWO BILLION PESOS CAN BE ALLOCATED FOR SOME OTHER INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECT. I WILL DEFINITELY FOLLOW THIS ISSUE. AFTER THE BROADBAND ZTE SCAM, HERE IS ANOTHER SIMILAR ISSUE THAT MUST BE SCRUTINIZED.
hindi po ba pwede na libre na lang ang pagkuha ng passport?
at ano po ba ang pinagkaiba ng machine readable passport na under BOT project at ng pinampalit ng DFA sa project ng proponent.
the new passport have electronic/barcoded signature kaya di makikita ng naked eye ang signature ng may-ari.
To all the commenters: i saw this media release from the DFA's website. Looks like okay naman ang outcome ng pinangpalit ng DFA and BSP na passport program. Eto po yung link: http://www.dfa.gov.ph/news/pr/pr2008/apr/pr227.htm
PHILIPPINE MACHINE-READABLE PASSPORTS ARE TAMPER-RESISTANT AND FULLY ICAO-COMPLIANT
21 April 2008 - The Department of Foreign Affairs assures our people that the new machine-readable passports (MRPs) being issued by the department are tamper-resistant and fully compliant with the standards and requirements of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO).
The Philippine MRPs incorporate security features specifically designed to discourage tampering and improve the integrity of the passport system. Otherwise, tampered or forged passports will be rejected at airports, ports of entries of foreign countries.
The security features include, but are not limited to, the following:
1. watermarked paper and colored fibers,
2. ultraviolet (UV) - reactive inks,
3. a combination of security prints, such as fine lines with modulation, guilloche design, art screen and dash effects and microtext,
4. laser-perforated alpha-numeric serial numbers,
5. security laminates that are ultra thin with strong adhesion to prevent chemical, thermal or mechanical forgery,
6. high-level origination and high image definition,
7. high security animated and color switch optical imaging, and
8. nano imaging.
All relevant Philippine government agencies particularly the Bureau of Immigration, as well as all governments of the world, have been fully apprised of the features of the new Philippine passport and are thus able to detect forgeries and discrepancies which is highly prejudicial to Filipinos using said forged/fake passports.
Immigration officers are equipped with special tools for ascertaining the genuineness of passports.
The new MRP system includes the development and maintenance of a secure passport database to aid in rooting out identity theft and raising the integrity of the country's passport system.
Since the launch of the new machine-readable passports in June last year, the department has not had any verified case of fraud successfully foisted against the Philippine MRP.
The department is constantly evaluating and undertaking measures to improve the security of the passport system. END

With the new features of the machine readable passport, mahihirapan na ang mga baklas-passport fixers kasi may hologram na pala at scanned na ang photo ng passport holder, unlike before na idinidikit lang.
