OBSOLESCENCE OF THE MALAGASY ADMINISTRATIVE IDENTITARY TECHNIQUE

Human and Social Sciences

The general organization of the administrative identity includes: the national identity card, the civil status, the passport, etc., on a national scale, is still done, in most cases, manually. Annual population growth, in Madagascar, is approximately 2.7%, requiring a more qualitative and quantitative data recording technique than current aging administrative procedures and devices. The root of the problem is none other than the obsolescence of the administrative identity technique relating to the general organization of all the necessary elements. Administration costs and processing time should also be reasonable. The main objective of this study is to eradicate the misuse of the administrative identity, observed through the documentation, the investigations or the results thus obtained are scrupulously treated. At the level of the electoral list, the number of duplicates amounts to 143.134 and the total number of those who have the same national identity card number are 1.162.512 voters, during the electoral cycle of the year 2019 They are distributed in 22 regions, 119 districts, 1695 communes and 18.251 fokontany. The average number of administrative staff is 2 to 7 per office; computerized birth is 27%, the computerization rate of the national identity card is 4% for the duplicate, and 7% for the primata. 100% of the passports are computerized; the disputed cases, at the level of the Court of First Instance, increased by 13.46% between 2014 and 2018. The administrative costs of these documents are between 750 Ariary (0.21 US $) and 180.000 Ariary. Added to this is the aging state of the infrastructures and the administrative staff who do not, for the most part, offer a good quality of service. These pieces are falsifiable due to the lack of technology on their security. Manual processing of the administrative identity is synonymous with technical obsolescence and an obstacle to the efficiency of the system. In order to improve the management of administrative identity in Madagascar, in addition to capacity building and recruitment of qualified staff and renewal of infrastructure, centralization of the database and the use of single software are better solutions.
