• The AIM 2015 reached its halfway mark in 2013 – thus important to take stock of progress and refine approaches if necessary

AIM 2015 Mid-Term Review

86% of AIM 2015 has been completed or are on track for successful completion. However, 4 out of 29 Action Points run the risk of not being fulfilled.

Recommendations

ASEAN countries Survey of Business Needs for ICT and Information Exchange

• AP13: Establish networks of Centres of Excellence (CoEs) Announce the Establishment of CoEs

• 2. Refocus resources to maximise synergies• AP9: Promote secure transactions within ASEAN (+AP18&19) Identified

Requirements for an Intra-ASEAN Secure Transaction Framework

• 3. Reframe projects • AP17: Establish an ASEAN Internet Exchange Network Work Towards

the Establishment of an ASEAN Internet Exchange Network
