It was an incredibly enriching and valuable discussion. Both the speaker and moderator were exceptional. The Q&A segment was especially captivating, allowing for a fantastic exchange between myself, the moderator, and the passionate, deeply knowledgeable speaker, Mr. Ivan Mortimer-Schutts, showcasing his extensive experience in the field through thorough and passionate discussions on various topics.
I am particularly interested in the topics such as :
Fostering collaborations between governmental bodies and the public (with universities also playing a significant part) to promote conscientious data sharing involves multiple facets: creating awareness and educating the public. This effort necessitates establishing collaborative structures. Additional factors to consider encompass privacy and security concerns, policy formulation, engagement strategies, feedback mechanisms, ethical frameworks, incentivizing responsible data sharing, addressing challenges, and harnessing expertise to implement responsible data-sharing practices.
I observed the impending necessity for Malaysia to establish a civic society-focused entity dedicated to enhancing awareness regarding data, which would play a pivotal role in promoting responsible data practices. This organization would engage in educational and advocacy efforts, regulatory framework establishment, guideline formulation, governance, fostering data literacy, and providing legal support, especially for marginalized groups. Such an entity has the potential to empower individuals, foster trust, encourage dialogue, wield influence, stimulate economic growth, prevent misuse, and ultimately cultivate a culture of responsibility. However, there is a need for further research into successful models and case studies from other nations to adapt and tailor them to suit the Malaysian context.
Common concerns have also been addressed but suffice it to say, you can refer to this article of mine to know more.
Good job Malaysia Digital Economy Corporation (MDEC), Malaysiakini BM , Digital News Asia and the Government of Malaysia.
