Philippines to explore blockchain use cases, launches training program

The Philippines has started exploring blockchain technology use cases, launching a training program for researchers in the government’s Department of Science and Technology (DOST).

Enrico Paringit, a DOST official, said that the goal of the training is to see how blockchain can play a role in areas like healthcare, financial support and emergency aid. Paringit noted that the department is also looking at how blockchain can be used in the issuance of passports and visas, trademark registration and government records.
