JAKARTA - The South Jakarta Population and Civil Registration (Dukcapil) Sub-dept. targets to print 1,753,733 electronic ID cards (e-KTP) by 2025 for equalization of population services.

"A total of 1,753,733 people are required to have an ID card in South Jakarta," said Head of the South Jakarta Dukcapil Sub-dept. Muhammad Nurrahman, quoted by ANTARA, Sunday, September 6.

Nurrahman said there were still 13,605 residents who had not recorded and 1,206 unrecapable data in the recording.

Currently, South Jakarta Dukcapil is targeting 17-year-old students from the total population of South Jakarta as many as 2,323,644 people.

In the process of recording electronic ID cards, of course, challenges are found in the field, such as residents who rarely attend because they do not live in South Jakarta.

"It's just that there are still people who do not live in South Jakarta, both abroad, outside the region and studying elsewhere," he said.

However, this challenge can be found a solution with a program to visit the house or pick up the ball to the residents' residence.

This ball pick-up program is prioritized for people with disabilities and the elderly who are expected to experience the ease of population service.

The South Jakarta Dukcapil has also picked up 60 e-KTP recording balls in 2024. The electronic ID card recording activity can begin when a person is 16 years old.

That way, when the individual has a birthday, they can directly come to the kelurahan or the initial recording place to take the ID card.
