146 ENHANCING ELECTIONS AS INSTRUMENTS OF DEMOCRACY IN THE ASEAN REGION

MILESTONES

Action point: Request for an update on the plans of the
COMELEC on the use of digital signatures by the BEI and
BOC members.

7. Transmission Under the Terms of Reference for bidders, the COMELEC
facilities requires that the transmission capability covers all
clustered precincts for the electronic delivery of the

election results to the different canvassing levels.

Action point: Request for an update on the survey of
available transmission facilities covering the various

voting centers, and on the arrangements for the use of
such facilities for the AES, including the areas covered
by each of the various arrangements.

8. System-wide Under the Terms of Reference for the AES bidders, COMELEC
vote counters requires all AES machines to be cleared or zeroed out to
set to zero show that there are no entries/votes in the PCOS memory.

For greater transparency and trustworthiness of the whole
system, will there also be a zeroing out of vote counts,
SOV, and COC at the municipal CCS, provincial CCS,

national COMELEC CCS, and national congressional CCS?

Will the zeroing out at the national level be the result of
the transmission of the zeroing out of PCOS machines?
(This is also to test the transmission from the precinct

level to the national level)
