The government will soon roll out a program requiring citizens under 17 years of age to acquire a children's ID card (KIA). The regencies of Bone Bolango and Gorontalo in Gorontalo province will start pilot sites for the new requirement.

Parents in the regencies will be required to arrange for their child's identity papers at their local population and civil registration service office.
