00:00 At the same time as the celebration of the 122nd anniversary of the National Printing Office,
00:06 digitalized transactions are now being prepared for the government agencies serviced by the NPO.
00:14 This is the first of Karen Villanda.
00:16 The digitalization plan of the National Printing Office has been laid out as part of the agenda of the Marcos Administration
00:25 to target the agencies that will be able to reduce the amount of paper receipts and to be able to have a paperless transaction.
00:34 This is through the provision of electronic receipts to the government agencies that are being serviced by the NPO.
00:40 But before this, the infrastructure of the system must be prepared.
00:46 In the infrastructure, we are also preparing the possible events.
01:00 We are requesting an executive order to this National Printing Office.
01:09 This is what the NPO is aiming to do next year, at the same time as the celebration of their 122nd anniversary.
01:18 The agencies also returned their paper receipts to the National Printing Office of the Philippines
01:23 and the last one was after the BSKE.
01:27 As always, if you can remember, the BSKE voting was just finished.
01:37 This is one of the products that we are promoting that the National Printing Office is doing.
01:45 Aside from that, if you can see in the presentation,
01:49 from 19... 122 years from now, our office has evolved.
01:57 From wood, old machines, we also have new machines.
02:08 Also in celebration of the NPO's anniversary today,
02:12 PCO Undersecretary Karen Sherbet Maralit, PTV General Manager Annalisa Pood,
02:18 Comelec Chair Erwin Garcia and other officials from CSC, DBM and others.
02:23 Comelec recognizes the importance of the NPO's campaign whenever elections are held in the country.
02:29 We are not there if they are not there.
02:31 There is no bag if they are not there.
02:32 Therefore, we are really depending on them for our printing requirements.
02:36 The relationship between Comelec and NPO is very good.
02:39 We are always on time for all our printing requirements.
02:42 At the same time, they are very good at taking care of our people who are watching the NPO.
02:47 That's why we can hope for another 122 years.
02:52 A greeting was also given to the Presidential Communication Office Secretary Chelo Garafil of NPO,
02:57 which is one of the agencies under the PCO, through Usec Karen Sherbet Maralit.
03:03 She praised the agency's positive financial standing.
03:07 In the last budget season, we are proud of PCO
03:13 that the NPO is included in the budget presentation to the House of Representatives and the Senate.
03:19 If the other agencies are the first to lobby and ask for budget support from the Congress
03:27 for their yearly operations,
03:30 the NPO is one of the agencies that will report positive financial standing
03:38 for the operations that were conducted last year.
03:42 The NPO also promised to continue its effective service
03:46 as one of the official printing arms of the government.
03:50 Karen Villanda for the nation.
