Ok nice, i did get a couple of idea's and hint's talking to you guy's so it
really helped me get a better picture.
We will decide what to do exactly in a later stage.

And yes we have the ministry on board, but this is not going to be easy.

Greetings from Surinam and thanks everyone!

That is definitely a good idea, but you need the empowerment and commitment
from very above (Ministry?) to run the project. All parties should buy in.

What country are we talking about?

There is, see the Jamaica example with a central repository and synchronized
locations. Maybe Luis, Nico or Ced can tell about it?

..or maintain the local DB. So, there's more than one way to do it. It all
depends on the local situation
