Smart move SA

From dompass to smart card this is a smart move for South Africans, well we have thank Nkosazane Dlamini Zuma for this but for me personally I would take off my hart for IT guys who are pioneers of this move. The problem every South Africans knows about our former ID was their vulnerable to duplicates and corruption they possessed. Although in most cases their duplicates were the result of owners carelessness. Some of the advantages of these smart card is that they will not be lost easy as they are bank card size. The other advantage according to Nkosazane Dlamini Zuma is that they will be able to tell in real time whether a person is a foreigner or not and what status they have, this means they will less if no bribes as  this system will not allow someone to move from one category to another.
From IT point of view this will also minimise cyber securities and net crime. As this is still a piloted program which will be test on those applying for IDs for the first time I have my all hopes on it and positive it will work. http://www.techcentral.co.za/id-smart-cards-on-the-way-for-sa/31355/
