They are widely accepted here. If I have the process correct, first you get a tax certificate, then you can get the postal id, which is a government issued photo id.
The next piece of id I would ask for is an NBI clearance, which is another government issued photo id.
After those two you are pretty limited....passport, possible but rare, drivers license, forget it.

Word has it from my friend who shoots there on a regular basis, and this is being looked into as I write this by someone else, that the Postal ID's, though accepted, are as easy to get as a USA library card with any information or age you give them. Apparently some content providers there have been taking underage girls to get a postal ID because they lie about the girls age and they get an ID. The NBI clearance card is the only real ID that is hard to fake, unlike the Postal ID that is being used by many (not all) of the content guys there.
