SSS working with ARTA to resolve red tape

THE Social Security System (SSS) is coordinating with the Anti-Red Tape Authority (ARTA) to validate data that placed the state pension fund as the top government owned or controlled corporation (GOCC) with red tape complaints.

“From our own monitoring of ARTA referrals, all complaints received during the period covered were addressed and resolved within ARTA standards as our resolution rate is at 99.3%,” SSS President and Chief Executive Officer Robert Joseph Montes De Claro said in a statement.

“For the period covered by ARTA presentation to the Senate, SSS tracked a total of about 474,000 e-mails working diligently until they are all resolved within ARTA standards.”

This follows ARTA’s presentation of a list of most complained-about government agencies that used data from January to August 2025 presented to the Senate.

“SSS is currently coordinating with the Anti-Red Tape Authority to validate the reported data involving 244 complaints,” Mr. De Claro said.

He said complaints about service delivery made up the majority of cases, followed by issues with loan programs, then contributions.

“Loan programs complaints were about salary loan and calamity loan programs — both were enhanced this year featuring lower interest rates — mainly on difficulty as regards calamity loan applications and challenges on loan eligibility requirements and procedures. Contributions complaints were mainly about non-remittance by employers and long wait time for manual verification.”

The SSS receives complaints and feedback through its Committee on Anti-Red Tape (CART) created in June 2021 sent via hotline, corporate e-mail, postal mail, referrals from various government entities including ARTA, and through SSS Branches.

The state pension fund assured its members and stakeholders that it continues to implement reforms and digital innovations to minimize bureaucratic delays and enhance customer experience. — Aaron Michael C. Sy

Solana co-founder urges need for Bitcoin to adopt quantum resistance for future security

The post Solana co-founder urges need for Bitcoin to adopt quantum resistance for future security appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Solana co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko is urging the Bitcoin community to begin transitioning to quantum-resistant security measures, warning that advances in quantum computing may arrive faster than expected. Speaking during a Sept. 18 session at the All-In Summit, said the accelerating pace of technological breakthroughs means Bitcoin should not wait until the threat is imminent. According to him: “We should migrate Bitcoin to a quantum-resistant signature scheme. This is my bet, and it’s because so many technologies are converging right now, and this asymptotic rate of AI and how fast it’s accelerating—going from a research paper to an implementation—is astounding. So I would try to encourage folks to speed things up.” Yakovenko’s position is unsurprising, as market concerns over Bitcoin’s vulnerability to quantum-powered attacks have gained momentum following companies like Google reporting advances in the space. Considering this, he argued that these major tech firms’ adoption of quantum-resistant cryptography should signal the right time for Bitcoin to migrate its security architecture. The Solana co-founder furthered: “My key for this is Google and Apple adopting a quantum-resistant cryptographic stack. This is the time to go migrate, because now the consumer side of it is effectively solved and you don’t have to kind of wait. So you watch where Google’s going.” However, despite Yakovenko’s warnings, industry experts remain split on the technological advancements timeline as some argue that breakthroughs could occur within this decade, while others contend that the risks remain distant. Regardless of when its implementation occurs, Yakovenko stressed that the technology would be both a challenge and an opportunity. He said: “For the general public, quantum computing is such a massive unlock in terms of how much we can process that it’s going to be as big of a wealth creator, if we pull it off, as AI.” Bitcoin remains resilient…
