Prime Minister, Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin delivering a keynote speech virtually during the opening ceremony of the ASEAN Digital Ministers’ Meeting and Related Meetings at a hotel on Jan 21. --fotoBERNAMA COPYRIGHTS RESERVEDASEAN has to find ways to collectively mitigate cross-border cybercrime as it prepares to emerge as a competitive digital economic bloc in the post-COVID-19 period, said Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin.

“In this regard, ASEAN member states can no longer operate and work in isolation,” said Muhyiddin at the opening of ADGMIN1 themed “ASEAN: A Digitally Connected Community”. Member states’ national enforcement agencies should be equipped with state-of-the-art tools such as digital forensic capabilities to fight cybercrimes and be fully integrated regionwide to be really effective against cross-border transgressions.

Digital platforms could be required to assume greater accountability allowing them to be sued as long as they have control over their products. Muhyiddin emphasised that Malaysia is committed to providing greater efficiency and connectivity for people across the region and the country has been given the honour to coordinate the development of ASEAN Digital Masterplan 2025 to be launched during ADGMIN1.
