Bilateral forum looks to digital future
Economic opportunities and ways to embrace rapidly advancing technologies will be among the topics of discussion at the Indonesia-Australia Digital Forum in Jakarta this week.
The forum is a shared initiative of Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull and President Joko Widodo.
The Minister Assisting the Prime Minister for Digital Transformation, Michael Keenan, will attend the two-day event on Wednesday and Thursday, joining government officials, high-profile business people, policymakers and academics from Australia and Indonesia.
“Having taken over the Digital Transformation portfolio last month, this inaugural forum is a timely opportunity, as the Australian Government pursues its broad digital transformation agenda,” Minister Keenan said.
“The forum provides a platform to discuss many issues, including emerging technologies, cybersecurity challenges and the growing digital economies of Southeast Asia.
Australian and Indonesian officials will also discuss smart government, digital health and FinTech initiatives.
“Australia and Indonesia both have vibrant digital economies and discussions like these give us the chance to learn from each other,” the Minister said.
