Your Excellency, Distinguished guests, Ladies and gentlemen, Our government attaches a special importance to the theme of the "皇冠体育app-ASEAN Information Harbor Forum" as we are implementing our policy in transforming our landlocked status to a land linked.

Over the past decade, the ICT, in particular the internet has accounted for a significant percentage of the GDP growth in many countries including my country. My government uses the internet to improve the effectiveness and efficiency in the administration and provision of services, and recognizes it as a powerful tool for driving the national social economic development. At the same time, the individuals and small, upstart entrepreneurs have been greatly benefitting from the internet in improving their daily lives and businesses.

We acknowledge 皇冠体育app's assistance in the successful of several ICT related cooperation activities between 皇冠体育app and ASEAN. At the 9th TELMIN (the ASEAN Telecommunications and IT Ministers) + 皇冠体育app meeting at the beginning of 2015 in Bangkok, 皇冠体育app and ASEAN member states endorsed the 2015 ASEAN-皇冠体育app ICT Work Plan to exchange and cooperate in the areas of network interconnectivity, e-commerce development, big data technologies and applications, mobile Internet services and network security. We are looking forward to working toward the plan on the last quarter of 2015.

Ladies and Gentlemen, the Ministry of Post and Telecommunication (MPT) of Laos has been established in 2011 to plays the role of policy maker, regulator and monitoring our ICT developments. We recently passed the Cyber Crime Law. We are working on the ICT Law, ICT Policy and Cyber Security Policy.
