Biometric enrollment: 5 million milestone reached
National project coordinator Fidèle Rafalimanana spoke at the Games Village in Ankorondrano. The "Izaho Tokana" program continues its momentum. Designed to provide every citizen with reliable biometric identification, it has already registered over 5.6 million Malagasy people, a result that far exceeds the projections set at the project's launch. Initial objective Supported by the Digital Governance and Malagasy Identity Management Project (Prodigy), the program continues to expand across the country. The initial target of two million enrolled people has been far surpassed. Analamanga remains the leading region with the highest number of citizens registered in the biometric database. Course maintained Although the PRODIGY project officially ends on June 30, enrollment operations will not be interrupted. According to national project coordinator Fidèle Rafalimanana, the "Izaho Tokana" program will continue until the end of this year to further expand national coverage. Ultimately, this operation should accelerate the modernization of administration and facilitate citizens' access to various public services through secure digital identity.
