JAKARTA - The Central Jakarta Population and Civil Registration Sub-Department (Sudin Dukcapil) (Jakpus) noted that as many as 55,000 residents in its area have not yet pocketed an e-KTP or electronic identity card.

"The number of residents in Central Jakarta is 1.1 million, 5 percent have not recorded e-KTPs or around 55 thousand people," said Central Jakarta Head of Sub-dept. of Dukcapil, Ginanjar, when confirmed by VOI, Tuesday, April 12.

Ginanjar explained, there are still many Jakarta residents who have not recorded their e-KTP due to several factors.

As for the causes, such as residents who have moved house but have not renewed their e-KTP, the person concerned died but the family has not reported it, and a 17-year-old student.

"Of the eight sub-districts in Central Jakarta, many of the residents of Kemayoran District have not recorded e-KTPs," he said.

In order to reach residents who have not recorded their e-KTP, the Dukcapil Sub-Department has made efforts to pick up the ball.

Such as visiting residents' settlements, recording to schools, and making village aware of population administration (Adminduk).

"We are targeting that this year those who have not recorded e-KTP can be completed," he said.
