The underlying reason could be matter of economics, but I am of the view that with technology, investment in the infrastructure itself could be the basis for growth in human capital. Ie to say growth in technology can give rise to growth in learning.

I have great concerns about our cyber security preparedness noting the lag in cyber security laws across the region, and low level of overall regional cyber security awareness.

Without key cyber security issues addressed, and the bar on cyber security awareness raised we will be simply providing more cyber victims for cyber criminals and hackers.
