ILOILO City – The Civil Registry Office asked from the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) database certified true copies of documents that were partially or totally destroyed due to physical handling, humidity, and exposure to insects such as termites.
Mayor Jed Patrick Mabilog wants modern and updated records, and a systematic filing and easy tracking of documents.
This will let clients avail themselves of a “swift, systematic and accurately computerized service” from the Civil Registry Office, he said.
The following birth and marriage records were requested: June 1964, March 1974, April 1954, August 1954, September 1959, and November 1989.
But there are still an undetermined number of files to be acquired from the PSA pending the result of the manual reconciliation of the office’s archive.
“The Civil Registry Office is slowly filling in the gaps in the discrepancies,” said Civil Registrar Romeo Caesar Manikan Jr. “In the advent of the proposed automation of the office system, this major concern shall be addressed straightforwardly.” (Iloilo City PIO/PN)
