SUMMARY OF ID-IGF
NATIONAL DIALOGUE 2016
Panelists (in alphabetical order): Aulia Marinto (idEA / Indonesia e-Commerce
Assocation), I Ketut Prihadi (BRTI / Indonesia Telecommunication Regulatory
Authority), Kristiono (MASTEL / Indonesia Infocomm Society). Moderator:

The Indonesia National Dialogue
on Internet Governance Forum
(ID-IGF) is an important affair and
needs to be undertaken (regularly
– Ed.) not only in Jakarta, but also
in other regions across Indonesia.
So said Rudiantara, the Indonesian
Minister of Communication and
Information Technology (MCIT) in
his welcome speech in the opening
of the national dialogue which was
held in the BPPT Thamrin, Jakarta, on
Tuesday (15/11/2016). He explained
that a number of national issues
related to internet governance, such
as over-the-top (OTT), internet tax
regulation, cyber security efforts,
development of infrastructures, as
well as roadmap of the Indonesian
e-commerce could be jointly
discussed in forums such as ID-IGF.
According to Rudiantara, the
Indonesian Government would
keep supporting the creation
of level playing field for all
Indonesian internet stakeholders
in undertaking their business, as
well as developing regulations
that could be implemented and
enforced. He further stated that one
of the concerns was the fact that
Indonesia needs to undertake its homework concerning the Over-the-Top (OTT)
business by developing a regulation concerning the OTT governance as well as
supporting local OTT businesses. Currently, there is still a lack of equal opportunity
(competitive fairness) between foreign and local OTTs. Local OTTs are demanded
to comply with the existing regulations, which force them to go through complex
and multi-layered licensing process, and in turn cause them hardship in acquiring
funding. On the other hand, many of their foreign counterparts simply ignore such
regulations.
There shall also be equal treatment between local and foreign OTTs in regulatory
context, but there needs to be consideration on how to boost local OTTs through
affirmative policy to support especially the small ones to certain level.
The Government is currently still preparing the Draft Ministerial Decree (RPM) on OTT
(Application and/or Content Service Provision through Internet) which was initiated
in December 2015. However, a number of issues hinder the progress. At international
level, international trade agreements (such as TPP, RCEP, USEPA, etc.) will put more
constraints on Indonesian Government to protect local OTTs due to the agreements’
non-discrimination clause. It is therefore urgent for all relevant parties to think about

Cyberspace security and human rights
are two affairs that should go hand-
in-hand, because the improvement of
cyberspace security may support the
free and safe use of internet, making
it as an important instrument for the
exercise of other human rights by the
internetusers.However,whatfrequently
occur instead are the tensions between
the need for security in the cyberspace
against human rights protection.
Further dissemination of internet at
global level has increased the risks,
threats and attacks in the cyberspace.
However, these tensions actually stems
from the unclear or inappropriate
definition of national sovereignty
and resilience.
This session concluded that currently
in Indonesia, there is still an absence
of any clear definition concerning
national resilience, particularly in its
relation with cyberspace security. The
session produced several follow-up
recommendations to address the issue,
namely: Indonesia needs to define its
national resilience which can serve
as the basis for cyberspace security
policy and strategy making, which in
turn can protect the entire segments
of society, including the minority.
In addition, Indonesia also needs to
establish a national cyberspace security
coordinatingagencywhichiscomposed
of multi-stakeholders.

The emergence of various threats
against national cybersecurity is
an alarm that calls for collective
awareness of various parties including
the government, academics, business
sector, as well as the community.
Indonesia is at its initial phase in
developing a national cybersecurity
strategy.
The core functions of cybersecurity are
Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond, and
Recover. Several cybersecurity-related
institutions in Indonesia have been
mapped: ID-SIRTII, ID-CERT, Lemsaneg
(National Crypto Agency), Ministry
of Communication and Informatics,
Ministry of Defense, Police, community/
society (Mastel, APJII), and academics.
Several steps that can be taken moving
forward are: developing regulations
related to cybersecurity in Indonesia,
building National Security Operation
Center, national collaboration with
regard to research and development in
cybesecurity, cooperation with various
relevant agencies, raising awareness on
cybersecurity, capacity building of local
community in various regions across
Indonesia, as well as international.
Protecting national cybersecurity is
a big task that shall be undertaken
collectively by all parties, and one that
requires strong commitment from
the head of state which can ensure
that the National Security Agency
run effectively. In addition, wider
stakeholders need to be engaged, such
as the Bank of Indonesia as well as the
Financial Services Authority (OJK),
which are some of the pivotal agencies
concerned with cybersecurity.

There is still a lack of multi-stakeholder
collaboration in the digital startup
ecosystem. With the government’s
intentiontoempowerdigitaleconomy,
which is a sector with extremely
rapid development at global level,
an intensive collaboration between
sectors related to e-commerce
becomes a necessity. Other than
fostering digital startups to become
problem solvers at local level, there are
also aspirations for Indonesian digital
startups to be able to compete at
global level. According to participants,
the problems in Indonesia’s digital
startup ecosystem mostly relates to
substantial technical field, as well as
normative condition. What needs
to be clarified in the first place is
the concept of adjustment from
the traditional commercial system
toward e-commerce, as well as the
condition of technical experts as well
as those who have IT technical skills.
These people need to be prepared to
become the actors, and at social level,
there must be efforts to convey the
message that programmers are not a
low-level job.
There needs to be a development
of multi-stakeholders collaboration
forum with regard to the execution of
government programs that have been
prepared in order to build a healthy
digital startup ecosystem in Indonesia.
In addition to enhancing the intensity
of collaboration, the position of multi-
stakeholders must also be broadened
up to more regions and must be also
directed toward decentralization in
order to ensure that at the end of the
day, the digital startups in Indonesia
become inclusive, instead of being
centralized in few regions.
The discussion highlighted the
crucial role of internet in supporting
the repository and depository
management which would ease
access to knowledge for the general
community in a country. However,
it needs to go hand-in-hand with
the readiness of other factors in
the country. In Indonesia, some of
the constraints in repository and
depository management process
include the lack of data collaboration
between government agencies, as
well as lack of public information
openness.
The session was concluded by
highlighting the need for a multi-
party collaboration to develop an
open digital collection which is easily
accessible to all Indonesian people
particularly with regard to education
and development. For that purpose,
the National Library (Perpusnas) can
serve as the spearhead organization
in developing a digital library that
is connected to the Indonesia
OneSearch (onesearch.id). Indonesia
OneSearch is one of Perpusnas’s
efforts to provide various information
and reference in digital format.
In addition, the National Library
shall also involve other knowledge
management agencies such as the
national archive, museums, research
institutions, individuals, as well as
other stakeholders.

5. November 2016 - Dialogue Summary

Internet, when brought along with decent social arrangement and context,
can serve as a medium for public participation to create positive social
changes. Internet can facilitate the community to create a collective creation
room, disseminate information, disseminate counter-narrative, and even
conduct digital activism which can bridge offline action. These were shown
in a number of discussions and actions undertaken by Papua Itu Kita,
Indorelawan, and Islam Bergerak. However, recently, social media contents in
Indonesia are immersed with noises in form of hate speeches which are used
for mass mobilization to satisfy certain parties’interest.
The stock of address for IP v4 has been running out
since 2011, particularly in Asia-Pacific. In response
to this, IPv6 has to be adopted to cope with the
growing use of internet particularly in Indonesia.
However, there are several barriers that slow
down the IPv6 implementation, such as the lack
of collective commitment to migrate to IPv6 due to the lack of any binding regulation, the remaining IPv4 to support the
existingactivities,theabsenceofanymajorprogramthatrequiresmassiveuseofinternetprotocol,insufficientsocialization
of the advantages of IPv6 particularly for the decision makers, as well as other reasons, such as network instrument, human
resources, socialization of other aspects, etc.
All panelists mentioned the urgency to adopt IPv6, while at the same time also iterated the importance of paying attention
on several issues, such as the lack of implementation of the IPv6 by the industry, strengthening of regulation and policy
for IPv6, human resources capacity enhancement to understand IPv6, as well as multi-stakeholder collaboration. If IPv6
is considered important to be implemented, there needs to be efforts to accelerate the development of its ecosystem
(Content, Apps, Website), and it must be supported by all internet stakeholders.
The discussion identified a number of
challenges encountered by Indonesian
people in using the internet maximally
to create positive social changes: gap
in internet connection access and
quality, reluctance of civil society
organization to be more actively using
the internet to support offline action,
the fact that not all youths in Indonesia
are digital natives with sufficient digital
capacity, poor digital literacy among
internet users, as well as the public
growing concern on the possibility
of being sued for defamation under
the Electronic Information and
Transaction (ITE) Law.

Discussion highlighted the
importance of an internet governace
that can guarantee the information
sovereignty of a country as well as
one that recognizes the state’s role
in protecting its national interest.
It emphasizes on the principle of
respecting the state sovereignty
in governing ICT use in its territory
in accordance with its prevailing
national law.
The state’s sovereignty and authority
are still recognized and needed in
internet governance. With regard
to this, efforts to strengthen legal
aspects and regulations pertaining
to internet governance are needed
to protect the citizens in cyberspace,
especially ones pertaining to the
protection of private data and OTT.
It is also noted that legal actions
conducted in the cyberspace are
subject to the prevailing offline laws.
In fact, it is in line with Indonesia’s
position that recognizes that any
rights governed offline shall be also
recognized online.
As a way forward, the MOFA is
expected to conduct the necessary
coordination to strengthen the
diplomacy concerning internet
governance at global level which
currently comprises various issues
which are being discussed in various
international forums.
What’s Behind
Free Service?
Towards Indonesia’s Cyber
Sovereignty and Resilience
LEGAL ECONOMIC
Currently, there are numerous free
applications provided by Over the
Top (OTT) service providers from both
domestic level and overseas. The
sustainability of this service depends on
its users’ data. All information submitted
by the application users are utilized by
the service providers in accordance with
the terms and conditions that have been
approved by the users.
Thisphenomenonhasbroughtchallenges
to the Indonesian government, business
and community. Indonesian people
need to enhance their understanding
on the consequences of the “terms and
conditions” offered by OTT provider to
their private data when they agree on
using an application. In another word,
Indonesian people need to understand
the importance of privacy and protection
of private data on the internet. OTT
provider also needs to realize that their
commitment in protecting their users’
private data truly affects their application
and business credibility and reputation.
The Indonesian government also needs
to develop regulations that can foster
industry to protect its consumers’private
data. Furthermore, it also needs to take
into account the national economic
aspects, such as the governance of
competition between local and global
OTT providers. In addition to regulation
making, the government also needs to
ensure that global OTT providers comply
with the‘game rules’in Indonesia.

The Network Neutrality refers to a
non-discriminatory network, which is
materialized by treating all contents
or applications equally and allowing
the network to support every type of
content or application. The panelists
argued that network neutrality is still
hard to realize, since the holders of
network provider license are also the
holders of service provider license.
Networkneutralityisinseparablefrom
business interest, which means the
stronger would take more benefits.
Neutrality in interconnection still
cannot be materialized because the
current interconnection system is still
best effort-based. On the other hand,
the network strenghts between
operators are not the same either.
There is an unfair competition
going on because the holders of
the network provider license are
also the holders of service provider,
which often come under one
business group. The government
is therefore being pushed to play
more roles as a regulator to govern/
maintain the competition fairness
(healthy business competition). The
interconnection is often constrained
by unequal network strengths
between operators which lead to
high cost.
The panelists raised the issue of the
potential threat of internet crime
which could happen to children
online. The new behaviors of the
people in the cyberspace also transfer
some problems from the real world
into the cyberspace, with children
becoming the vulnerable party. A
number of cases are found on the
cyberspace, ranging from bullying,
sexual violence, pornography,
prostitution, exploitation, terrorism,
hatred, gambling, fraud, until drugs.
Negative content filtering on the
internet would help in preventing
children from being exposed to
negative internet content.
Digitalliteracybecomesanevenmore
important skill to prevent such risks,
not only for children, but also for the
entire family, particularly the parents.
Nowadays, it is even more important
for parents to master digital literacy,
and to achieve this, capacity building
in digital literacy is required for the
family. Even at school, since ICT is
not a part of the curriculum, there
needs to be extra-curricular activities
that can foster digital literacy not
only for the students, but also for
teachers. In addition, there needs to
be collaboration between various
stakeholders, as well as a roadmap
for child protection on the internet
in order to synergize the efforts of
different stakeholders.

LEGAL
A comprehensive law on personal
data protection (PDP) is crucial for
Indonesiaduetoseveralreasons.First,
because the privacy and protection
of citizen, in this regard the private
data, is the responsibility of the state
and a citizen’s right. Creating a law
that specifically governs PDP will
secure a maximum protection for
every citizen.
Second, because the regulation can
support Indonesia’s sovereignty and
resilience in digital era. The absence
of any PDP regulation would hinder
cross-border business, and would
in turn affect the nation’s industrial
growth. This is because Indonesia
would be perceived as failing to
secure an equal protection for cross-
border data transfer.
By looking into both points in the
above, it can be concluded that
a weak PDP might harm not only
individual, but also the community
and the state. Therefore, education
on awareness on the importance of
privacy and PDP for government,
business and general public is urgent
to be developed in the near future.

challenges from the internet could not
be solved only through regulation. Even
more important than regulation were the
concern and participation of the various
stakeholders in internet governance, which
would implement it in the community.
According to Arko Hananto Budiadi, the
Coordinator of ID-IGF Multistakeholder
Advisory Group (MAG), the multi
stakeholder collaboration was the basis
of Internet Governance Forum (IGF)
implementation at global level, which
reflected the implementation of the spirit
and agreement of the World Summit on
the Information Society (WSIS). Arko,
who currently also serves as the Director
of Social-Culture and International
Organization of Developing Countries,
Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA), said
that in December 2015, the United Nations
(UN) already extended IGF’s mandate for
the next 10 years. In his welcome remark,
he expressed his hope that both global and
nationalIGFdialoguescouldproduceinputs
to help achieving independent, sovereign,
professional, transparent and accountable
internet governance in Indonesia through a
collaborative and inclusive dialogue.
Furthermore, the dynamics and challenges
of internet governance and IGF as a forum
was discussed in the plenary session,
under the theme of “Internet Governance
101” with panelists Garin Ganis (ISOC - ID
/ Internet Society - Indonesia), Joyce Chen
(ICANN / Internet Corporation for Assigned
Names and Numbers - Asia Pacific), and
Shita Laksmi (HIVOS / Member of UN IGF
MAG), and moderated by Ashwin Sasongko
Sastrosubroto (LIPI / Indonesian Institute of
Sciences). In general, each panelist shared
their ideas on the internet ecosystem and
the important for Indonesia to be involved
in global dialogue and cooperation.
