Thank you for the information @chessmasterhex. I love this type of conversations, as I believe all governments should have something like this. We still have a standard ID document in South Africa. Everything is Manual and there is a lot of corruption and Identity theft . It is actually ridiculous.
It can be revolutionary if your digital online ID is built on a private blockchain managed by your government.
That sounds like a horrible practice. They should probably make a system to fix that, even if it is not based on blockchain, it should still cut back on ID theft.
Isn't there like a government official who is in charge of stuff like this?
This is Africa and like they always say Africa is a tough country :) There is probably somebody in charge but everything here is very slow. We are still a 3rd world country, full of corruption. I do not want to generalize, but it is very difficult to get anything done right from a government perspective.
I once met someone from Africa telling me exactly the same, governments are corrupted. That is too bad. One can only hope that it is going to change.
It will change, but it will take many generations :(
That is too bad.
