CHAMPION INTERNATIONAL AND ASEAN CYBER CAPACITY BUILDING INITIATIVES Cyber threats are borderless and no country can deal with the rapidly evolving threat landscape alone. Singapore stays committed to build cybersecurity capacity within ASEAN in operational, technical, legislative, cyber policy and diplomatic areas. Singapore will focus on building understanding and raising awareness in these areas, as well as conducting training and exercises to raise capacity. To do so, Singapore will partner the international community, Dialogue Partners and ASEAN Member States (AMS) to organise workshops, seminars and conferences that advance international and regional cooperation in these aspects. We will also support the active role played by the ASEAN Regional Forum (ARF) countries in fostering cyber confidence building and capacity building measures. Singapore will establish an ASEAN Cyber Capacity Programme from 2017 to complement the various existing ASEAN initiatives. 15th ASEAN Telecommunications and Information Technology Ministers Meeting and Related Meetings 46 CHAPTER 4 FACILITATE INTERNATIONAL AND REGIONAL EXCHANGES ON CYBER NORMS AND LEGISLATION GovernmentWare 2015 Conference Consensus and agreement among nations are key to ensuring the success of cybersecurity cooperation.
