The country’s new automated election service provider, Miru Systems Co. Ltd, has signed a memorandum of agreement with the Commission on Elections (Comelec) and the National Printing Office (NPO) for the 73 million ballots to be used in next year’s midterm polls.
According to the agreement signed on Thursday at the Comelec central office in Manila, the NPO will be using brand new machines lent by Miru, which uses the latest technology from industry leader, HP.
In a statement, Miru said P1.6 billion from its existing bundled contract as the official election provider for the 2025 elections has been allocated to the printing of 73 million ballots, which will begin in the second week of December.
