For the past decades, Singaporeans has enjoyed the convenience of a common NRIC that is used for many personal transactions. This has since been extended to the SingPass, which is used for identifying the person for many transactions with Government departments.
It is time to enhance the SingPass system, to be used more widely in the online world. Some suggestions:
- Make SingPass available to use with private organisations and websites
- Allow the SingPass owner to be linked to a 2FA token, i.e. the token that is used for internet banking
- Allow the registration of an e-mail and mobile phone
- Allow the registration of a unique user name to complement the NRIC.
This enhanced infrastructure will facilitate the adoption of online transactions in the public and private sector and improve national efficiency. Many websites can use this common login, rather than create a separate password to be stored in each website.
