At the invitation of H.E. Josephine Teo, Minister for Digital Development and Information, and Minister-in-Charge of Smart Nation and Cybersecurity of Singapore, Secretary-General of ASEAN, Dr. Kao Kim Hourn, will participate in the 9th ASEAN Ministerial Conference on Cybersecurity (AMCC), in Singapore, on 16-17 October 2024, held on the sidelines of the Singapore International Cyber Week.
The AMCC, first convened in 2016, serves as an interim, cross-pillar, ministerial-level platform to address the inherently cross-sectoral nature of cybersecurity issues. Dr. Kao will also attend the AMCC special session with Dialogue Partners and hold bilateral meetings with the Ministers and Head of delegations from ASEAN’s external partner countries to discuss ways in enhancing regional cooperation to address emerging cyber threats, while also exploring ways to strengthen a rules-based multilateral order in cyberspace towards achieving open, secure and resilient cyberspace.
