BARIO: The registration programme for Sarawak ID and S Pay Global for Sumbangan Asas Keperluan Sarawak (SKAS) recipients in Bario Sub-District began on Monday (Feb 3).

Held at two main locations, Dewan Masyarakat Bario Sentral and Long Lellang A Longhouse, the programme saw a large turnout, especially for S Pay Global registration, as many residents still lacked accounts.

At Dewan Masyarakat Bario Sentral, 134 people attended for verification and registration, but only 41 qualified, while 93 did not meet the criteria.

Additionally, eight lacked smartphones, one account was canceled, and two were non-Sarawak residents.

In Long Lellang, 56 people registered, with only 24 approved, while 32 failed and 12 were ineligible.

Challenges included lack of smartphones, bedridden recipients, weak network connectivity affecting OTP reception, outdated Android devices, and ID verification failures due to outdated photos.

The registration programme is currently ongoing to allow more residents to sign up and benefit.
