Jakarta (Antara) - Deputy Speaker of the Parliament Fadli Zon has expressed regret over the government's decision to halt the implementation of the electronic-Identity Cards (e-ID) project, on which funds amounting to Rp6-7 trillion have already been spent. "I think the ongoing process should continue because the investment is quite huge. If I am not mistaken, the project amounts to some Rp6 to 7 trillion. So, it should be continued," Fadli Zon of the Great Indonesian Movement (Gerindra) Party stated here on Monday. Indonesia requires a single identity number system to support the implementation of general elections and regional head elections, among other things, he noted. "Social security number is crucial because it collects every piece of information about a citizen," he remarked. (*)
