00:00 This week, Comelec will announce the results of the survey on the one and only bidder for the 2025 midterm elections.
00:07 The bidding will also open for overseas absentee voting.
00:11 Sandra Aguinaldo is on the spot.
00:13 In front of the chairman and commissioners of Comelec,
00:20 the ability of the machine that can be used in the 2025 national and local elections was tested.
00:27 It was tested on the Mirror Systems of South Korea, which is a single bidder.
00:32 Some commissioners, election watchdogs, and some members of the media tried using the machine.
00:39 Some tried to vote excessively.
00:41 Some tried to hide the ballot or to put other marks to test what the machine will do.
00:50 Mirror Systems also demonstrated the direct recording electronic voting machine or the touchscreen machine
00:57 that is not used by a physical ballot.
01:00 According to Comelec, the Special Bids and Awards Committee has a recommendation
01:05 if the Mirror Systems was able to pass the survey.
01:08 You will know within this week if we will give the award to this one and only bidder
01:13 based on the technical evaluation, post-qualification, and such other issues pertaining to this company.
01:22 If this goes on, 110,000 automated counting machines will be supplied by Mirror Systems to Comelec.
01:29 These will be made in South Korea, but the machines will be leased or rented by Comelec.
01:35 However, we cannot be compliant because when it comes to mass production, that's where the glitches occur.
01:44 So, what Comelec will do is, in the event that they get the award, we will focus on the production level, from the customization.
01:52 The bids for the online voting and counting system that will be used in overseas absentee voting were also opened.
02:00 But the two bidders were not able to pass the Indra Soluciones Tecnologías de la Información and We Are IT Philippines, Inc.
02:09 due to various reasons.
02:11 That's why Comelec will release an invitation to bid again where the two bidders can join.
02:18 We can see that there are documents problems. We think they can cure this. They can still do it.
02:24 For GMA Integrated News, Sandra Aguinaldo, for Tutok 24 Horas.
02:29 [music]
