or general/collective terms coined by others or by religious groups to refer to groups, which, with constant use and span

mentioning some of the predominant/common subgroups in the area.

regardless of whether or not this belief is represented by an organized group or (b) affiliation

requested to show their IDs.
Note that the PhilID program led by the PSA is NOT THE SAME as the

respondent understands that you are actually referring to the city/municipal
ID, NOT the Phil ID. City/municipal LGU ID should be issued in the
city/municipal LGU where the household resides.
