INTRODUCTION

Since its launch in 2011, the AIM 2015 has provided a

framework and roadmap for the development of
information and communication technology (ICT) at
the regional level and, as a result, has enabled greater
ICT development in ASEAN.
ICT is today an important engine of economic growth
in the region.
Cost of internet access and mobile subscription have
fallen sharply in ASEAN Member States (AMS), allowing
greater connectivity for millions of ASEAN Citizens.

CONCLUSION
CONCLUSION

AIM
2015 29 87
ACTIONS PROJECTS

Benefited from AIM 2015:

Master Plan of ASEAN Connectivity
AEC Blueprint
CONCLUSION

Strategic Thrust 1: Economic Transformation

ICT clearly acts as an engine that transforms the economy
An upward trend has also been witnessed over the past few years

Strategic Thrust 2: People Empowerment and Engagement

The quality of life of millions has been enhanced by more affordable ICT
The cost of accessing mobile cellular services has been falling
CONCLUSION

Strategic Thrust 3: Innovation

Innovation in ASEAN is on the rise as reflected in the value of the Innovation pillar of
the Global Competitiveness Index
The average score for ASEAN was 2.57 in 2011 and it increased to 2.97 in 2015

Strategic Thrust 4: Infrastructure Development

ICT infrastructure has been developed to support the provision of services to ASEAN
citizens
The improvement is apparent as many more people have access to internet nowadays
CONCLUSION

Strategic Thrust 5: Human Capital Development

More ICT professionals have been developed to support the greater ICT sectors and help
transform other sectors
This is seen through the increasing number of ICT professionals in most AMS

Strategic Thrust 6: Bridging the Digital Divide

The gap of the digital divide has become narrower
CONCLUSION

That the AIM 2015 has achieved success as it comes to an end.

the AIM 2015 is intended to serve as a precursor to the even greater
objective of a highly evolved ICT industry and ICT usage in ASEAN.
AIM 2015 can therefore only lay a foundation on which the AMS can
develop.
ICT development must be continuously pushed across different fields of ICT
and across different nations and cultures.
Therefore, it is of interest to express third-party opinion regarding
suggestions on the direction which ASEAN should take for the long-term
development of ICT in each respective Action Point.
RECOMMENDATIONS ON ASEAN ICT
DEVELOPMENT BY ACTION POINT
RECOMMENDATIONS
ACTION POINT
Share various PPP models and practices
amongst ASEAN countries to formulate
PPP models for the implementation of
ICT projects
Outreach campaign to promote
awareness of cyber-security
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that ASEAN countries make efforts to initiate projects
similar t o Replicating ASEAN Best Practices in ICT for Disaster Risk
Management or, in other words, projects that study best practices in ICT
utilization on other topics.
The emerging concerns over internet security and privacy across the world
signify an ever-growing threat to ASEAN as well. Therefore, ASEAN should
systematically and constantly assess the strength and
weakness of ASEAN cybersecurity systems, and identify potential
vulnerabilities. By doing so, it would allow businesses in ASEAN to become
more resilient to new types of cyber attack. This could be achieved by means
such as annual forums, meetings or other activities to create public
awareness.
RECOMMENDATIONS

ACTION POINT RECOMMENDATION

ASEAN should continue to promote the increased installation of broadband
internet in ASEAN. The goal of this Action Point, as reflected in its title name,
Ensure every child has access to is highly difficult to achieve since there exist large gaps between the levels of
broadband Internet economic development in different AMS. It remains that some schools,
particularly schools in the rural areas of the developing ASEAN countries, are
struggling to have real usable broadband internet.
A study under the AIM 2015 suggested that there exists a variation between
each AMS level of national broadband development. Therefore, the
Establish an ASEAN Broadband Corridor recommendation is made that ASEAN should make attempts to support and
promote the national development of broadband internet systems,
particularly in countries with high opportunity for development.
Develop ICT certification and a skills It is recommended that Training Roadmap developed in the ASEAN ICT Skill
upgrading programme Upgrading and Development project is adopted and utilized by the AMS
RECOMMENDATIONS
ACTION POINT
Review of USO or similar policies
Collaborate with relevant ministries
RECOMMENDATION
In the In-depth Study on the Harmonization of Interconnection, Licensing,
Competition and USO ATRC project, it was found that traditional models
for Universal Service Obligation Funds may not be efficient enough to deliver
tangible results in a timely manner. Thus, ASEAN should pursue further
studies on alternative means of USO fund disbursement.
ASEAN should increase coordination with working bodies of other specific
fields of ICT; that is, there are imperative needs to understand the particular
demands of specific fields of the ICT industry, which would allow an
appropriate identification of national ministries and agencies.
