JAKARTA - Minister of Communication and Information, Budi Arie Setiadi appreciated and supported the efforts and commitments of G20 Member countries to realize digital transformation.

"Indonesia is grateful for India's leadership and looks forward to future collaboration among G20 members to realize a strong, secure and inclusive digital future for all, where no one is left behind," Budi said in his official broadcast, quoted Monday, August 21.

The three priority issues that will be discussed in India's G20 Presidency are public digital infrastructure, a safe and resilient digital economy, as well as digital expertise for the future workforce.

According to Budi, India's G20 Presidency is considered very important, because the digital economy can create new opportunities for growth and prosperity as well as new challenges.

"Such as unequal access to infrastructure and digital connectivity, digital threats and cyber attacks, as well as the lack of the necessary digital skills and literacy to understand the use of digital technology in a responsible and productive way," he said further.

Moreover, Minister of Communication and Information Budi also supports India's G20 Presidency initiative to discuss issues of security in the digital economy sector, to ensure safety and security that supports the resilience of the digital economy.

"Going forward, further exchanges will be made on how we as a global community address various challenges and problems on new technologies," he said.
