The Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) Regional Statistical Services Office IX in partnership with the Local Government Unit of Zamboanga City officially opened the Philippine Identification System (PhilSys) Registration Center at Barangay Tulungatung last 22 August 2022.

Bryan L. Madayag, PhilSys Focal Person of PSA RSSO IX was among those in attendance and in his message, acknowledged the support of the Barangay Council and for the warm welcome given to the PSA. He further advised that health protocols should still be observed as the threat of COVID-19 is not yet eliminated. Joining them was Land Bank of the Philippines Department Head for Zamboanga City, Mr. Rodolfo A. Luceñada who also gave a message emphasizing the role of Land Bank as co-locator in the registration center.

This year, the PSA aims to set up more registration centers in other barangays that were not covered in Step 1.
