Indonesia Strengthens Internet Governance
for Sustainable Development
Multistakeholder approach has become a
standout subject in the internet policy discussion
by the Association of Southeast Asian Nations
(ASEAN). At least in the World Summit on
Information Society (WSIS) 2005 in Tunisia,
ASEAN Telecommunication and IT Minister
(TELMIN) stated that “any approach to Internet
Governance must be conducted in a
multistakeholder environment with the full,
inclusive and appropriate participation of all
stakeholders: government, private sector, and
civil society”. ASEAN TELMIN also reminded
that WSIS was not only about internet
governance, but also the use of information and
communication technology to achieve the global
development target at that time, which was
Millenium Development Goals (MDGs).
Indonesia bene ted from a valuable opportunity
of being the host of the 8th Global Internet
Governance Forum (IGF) in Bali in October
2015. As stated in the Best Practice Forum:
Indonesia in IGF 2013 and The Way Forward
document, Indonesia attempts to balance three
important pillars in the multistakeholder context:
quality of stakeholder's participation, legitimacy
of decision making process, and immediate need
for a suf cient regulation.
Indonesia needs to keep strengthening the
multistakeholder functions and roles, particularly in
internet governance context. As stated in the Road
to WSIS+10: Key Country Perspectives in the Ten
Year Review of the WSIS published by Global
Partners Digital, in WSIS+10 High Level Forum in
Geneva in June 2014, Indonesia reaf rmed the
importance of multistakeholder forum as a part of
the ICT development ecosystem.
So was in the Global Conference on Cyberspace
(GCCS) in The Hague, April 2015, where Indonesia
stated that “an inclusive, effective, and clear
objective global architecture forum participated by
governments, private sectors, and civil society in
the framework of the United Nations World Summit
of Information Society (WSIS) is essential.”
Indonesia's ICT ecosystem that encourages
multistakeholder approach in WSIS framework is
expected to contribute to the achievement of post-
2015 global development targets speci ed in the
Sustainable Development Goals/SDGs. Let's work!

2. The above point is one of the
many stated in the Pattaya
Key Messages on the
WSIS+10 Review: Voices
from the Asia-Paci c
Region. Personal data
protection (privacy) is now a
growing issue in Indonesia,
one of the causes of which
was to the violation of privacy
c o m m i t t e d b y s o m e
application-based motorbike
taxi drivers (digital moto-taxi)
who sent inappropriate text
messages to their ex-
passengers, as well as
terror/threat to passengers
who gave the drivers “bad
review”.
In digital moto-taxi context,
there are three parties related
to privacy: service user
(passenger), service provider
(digital application manager),
and service partner (third
party, in this case, the
motorbike owner or driver).
The service provider shall
protect the owner of personal
data (prospective service
user), so that the latter can
t r u l y u n d e r s t a n d t h e
consequence of transferring
their personal data to the third
party prior to deciding to use
the service.
In accordance with the point
from Pattaya Key Message in
the above, Indonesia needs to
immediately have a Personal
We and Child's Safety on the Internet
We Immediately Need a Regulation
on Personal Data Protection (Privacy)!
Data Protection Law. The
Draft Law is scheduled to be
brought into the National
L e g i s l a t i o n P r o g r a m
( P r o l e g n a s ) 2 0 1 6 .
Meanwhile, the Ministry of
C o m m u n i c a t i o n a n d
Informatics has recently just
conducted a public testing to
t h e D r a f t M i n i s t e r i a l
Regulation on Personal Data
Protection in Electronic
System.
Collaborating with a network,
ICT Watch has been involved
in discussions on privacy
issue. In September 2015, for
i n s t a n c e , I C T W a t c h
participated in the Asian
Regional consultation on the
WSIS+10 Review which was
supported by Global Partners
Digital in Thailand, which
resulted in the Pattaya Key
Message. Subsequently in the
same month, ICT Watch also
actively participated in the
Privacy and Surveillance
Workshop in Jordan which
was organized by Citizen Lab,
University of Toronto, as well
as supported the Southeast
Asia Freedom of Expression
Network (SAFEnet), which,
together with EngageMedia,
conducted a workshop on
Netizen Privacy Security in
Jakarta, both of which were
held in September 2015.
The rapid and dynamic development in
information technology has made more than
80% of internet users in Indonesia today a
digital native (those who were born after
1980). Internet has become an inseparable
part of children and teenagers' daily life. It is
therefore important to realize that children's
safety and convenience when they browse the
internet is guaranteed. For that reason, a
number of organizations initiated the
Indonesia Child Online Protection
( providing a help desk everywww.idcop.id),
Thursday during business hours in Indonesia
Child Protection Commission (KPAI) of ce in
Menteng, Jakarta. ID-COP was founded by
KPAI, Nawala Indonesia, Sejiwa, ECPAT
Indonesia, Relawan TIK Indonesia (Indonesia
ICT Volunteers), and ICT Watch.
Child protection on the internet has become a
global concern. Therefore, in the 10th Global
Internet Governance Forum in Joao Pessoa,
Brazil, on 10-13 November 2015, one of the
attached workshops held was entitled “Child
Online Protection through Multistakeholder
Engagement”, which ICT Watch initiated. The
Indonesian hosts of the workshop were Mariam F.
Barata (from the Ministry of Communication and
Information), M. Yamien (Nawala Foundation),
and Shita Laksmi (HIVOS) as facilitator and
Sherly Haristya (ID-Con g) as the rapporteur.

“Governments must ensure the right to privacy and data
protection. They should also protect people from the
violation of these rights by companies, including where
necessary through the formulation of regulation. The
right to control and manage one's identity online,
including the right to anonymity, must be recognized.”
