President Jacob Zuma on Tuesday
attended the naming of the Smart ID Card Printing Machines at the Government
Printing Works in Pretoria .
Zuma also received his Smart ID Card
from Minister of Home Affairs, Naledi Pandor.
The four Smart ID card printing machines were named after struggle veterans Sophie De Bruyn, Lillian Ngoyi, Helen Joseph and Rahima Moosa.
Zuma said the process of changing
over to the new card will take longer to complete.
Zuma said the new ID Smart card will
have biometric and other features that will enable individuals to prove their
unique identity with hundred percent certainty.
He added that this will enable
government and businesses to deliver services that are more secured and
efficient.
