Secure, digital tools for Filipinos
The Philippine government's modernization efforts have been recognized at the GovMedia Awards 2025 held in Singapore. During the event, the eGovPH Super App won the E-Governance Project of the Year and e-Government Data Exchange Platform (eGovDX) as Digital Transformation of the Year.
According to the DICT, these recognitions "affirm President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.’s vision of bringing government services closer to citizens through secure, user-friendly digital tools."
The eGovPH Super App integrates both national and local services—covering digital ID, travel, health, public safety, and more—under one platform. To date, it has enabled over 150 million transactions and boasts more than 13 million users.
Meanwhile, the eGovDX platform, which links over 1,000 government services, has processed more than 500 million transactions. It was recognized as the “Digital Transformation of the Year” for its secure, interoperable ecosystem that enhances data privacy and promotes efficiency.
People need to feel that the government is working for them. That means faster service, zero lines, and more transparency, said DICT Undersecretary for E-Government David Almirol Jr.
A cornerstone of this transformation is the national ID system. So far, 87 percent of Filipinos are already registered in the system.
