00:00The process called the Trusted Bill in the Automated Election Management System for the election of 2025 was finished by COMELEC.
00:16Because of that, the process of online voting for OFWs will proceed on March 20.
00:21Marisol Abdurrahman was the one to speak.
00:23The Trusted Bill of the Election Management System or EMS of COMELEC was finished today.
00:34This is the last component that needs to be completed for COMELEC to receive the International Certification.
00:40They showed the so-called hash code.
00:42You can verify that you will not have a hash code if the system is not in order.
00:47In the process of making a vehicle, the vehicle is already there.
00:52And the last one is the quality control, the certification.
00:56If it really works well, if it is reliable.
01:03According to Garcia, it is justified that this process will be easier, especially since there will be an early online voting for OFWs.
01:11That's why it should be ensured that the system will be in order.
01:15The 1.3 million OFWs do not need to go to embassies or consulates to vote.
01:22Because they can do it online.
01:24The enrollment of OFWs in the system will start on March 20 from the original schedule of March 10.
01:31The Department of Foreign Affairs will approve this.
01:34This will be approved by COMELEC to verify the integrity of the election abroad.
01:40They are ready to carry out the OVCS and the following in the direction of COMELEC.
01:45They need to enroll themselves because they will be given a password.
01:49At the same time, the system will verify if they are the ones who will be enrolled,
01:54using their government-issued ID, passport, seaman's book if they are marines, or any other government-issued ID that we know of.
02:04Online voting will not be used in Russia, China and Turkey.
02:08The voting machines will still be used by the Filipinos.
02:12Those countries do not want to use their internet services.
02:16So we will bring the machines to them.
02:18The Election Watch Docs verified that the security of the online voting and counting system still needs to be maintained.
02:24The security of the online voting and counting system because it is the one that is connected to the internet.
02:30Our automated counting machine during the voting period is not connected to the internet.
02:36It will only be connected to the internet when it transmits the election results or our ER.
02:42These are acceptable standard platforms that are being used, open source platforms that are being used.
02:49So we have no worries with regards to the modules or the systems that they use there and the functionality of the OVCS itself.
