Do note that SAL's system is unable to cater to promo codes specifically provided to you by ABLIOverviewAccording to the Google &amp; Temasek / Bain, e-Conomy SEA 2019 report, Indonesia is the largest and fastest growing Internet economy in Southeast Asia, on track to cross the $130 billion mark by 2025. The 2020 edition of that report highlights that Indonesia’s digital economy continues to grow at double digits during the pandemic year. With no omnibus legislation in place, data protection in Indonesia is currently regulated by several specific laws, such as the Law on Electronic Information and Transactions. This is about to change. After several years in the making, the upcoming Personal Data Protection Law is making its final way through the House of Representatives, and may soon be formally enacted barring further delays. Once passed, the new law will be the first comprehensive law in Indonesia dedicated to the issue of data protection. It is expected to apply to all sectors, introducing new key roles and provisions on personal data protection, both electronically and otherwise. Organised by the Asian Business Law Institute, this webinar will look at the key changes, concepts and provisions under this upcoming legislation with a detailed presentation, followed by a dialogue session on what this new law means for lawyers, privacy practitioners and businesses across the region, what the compliance challenges are, and how stakeholders can prepare early to get a head start. This practical session is designed for professionals, legal or otherwise, who deal with data issues on a daily basis or who have an interest in data protection and interact with Indonesian parties regularly.
