THE ASEAN ICT MASTERPLAN 2020
ASEAN stands on the cusp of a historic transition and ICT stands to play a
transformative role in fostering an integrated and inclusive digitally-enabled community.
A new era for ASEAN requires the successful implementation of a new ICT vision to
address and inspire the growing aspirations of ASEAN citizens. To realise this new vision,
however, it is important that the current Masterplan be carried out in a timely manner.
G. Conclusion
Transitioning successfully to a digital economy requires the participation,
expertise and experience of different stakeholders. To this end, ASEAN is grateful to the
ASEAN Dialogue Partners and other stakeholders who have participated and assisted in
the first Masterplan, and looks forward to continuing these working relationships
through the current AIM 2020.
ASEAN stands committed to ensuring that the challenges within this Masterplan
are addressed in an effective, responsible and cohesive manner. Achieving these
objectives will result in a digitally-enabled, inclusive and secure ASEAN.
