Their aim is good din naman. Easier sign-up process sa mga new users since aminin na natin, napaka-tedious mag-sign up or gumawa ng bagong accounts sa mga e-wallets. Magpi-picture ka pa ng valid ID mo, upload it, then may face verification process pa.
Another one of their aim is to prevent identity fraud, which would be very beneficial sa lahat ng current and future users.
If I remember correctly, very recently lang may
foreign vlogger ang kumuha ng fake documents (I think driver's license yata 'yun) in a separate name. Meaning, nakagawa siya ng bagong identity. WTF

In that sense, yung bagong identity na nagawa niya, he could easily use that to sign up and create new accounts on various e-wallets and maybe even on local banks.

With this new implementation, hindi na lulusot ang ganitong modus since every sign-up is verified muna sa PSA's NIDAS (National ID Authentication Services).
Overall, it's a really good move from the government. I just hope they'll do rigorous testing muna and, just like xLays said, sigurohing secure ito before rolling it out to the public. We don't want another 'PhilHealth incident'.
